The Pecorino grape was, until recently, relatively unknown outside its native Abruzzo region. It is rightly gaining popularity for its attractive floral, clean fruit, mineral and crisply acidic qualities. Despite the rather tacky name, this is a good example, showing delicate floral, lemon citrus and almond on the nose with citrus and green fruit flavours backed by vibrant acidity and firm mineral grip. Pairs well with seafood, especially shellfish.
