About the Grape: Pecorino: An indigenous white variety of Abruzzo and the central Apennines, named after the local sheep (a¢€š¬Å“pecoraa¢€š¬�). Naturally low-yielding with thick-skinned berries, it delivers high natural acidity, pronounced aromatics (citrus, fennel, sage, white flowers), and a distinct saline-mineral signature. Typically vinified in stainless steel to preserve freshness, it excels with seafood and young cheeses and is best enjoyed young, though top examples can develop for a few years.
