Tasting notes:
Clear, pale straw yellow with greenish reflections, this Pecorino has good body and consistency. The nose is intense, with delicate fruity aromas of yellow plum and medlar, accented by citrus notes and subtle vegetal hints that add complexity and finesse. On the palate, it is dry, fresh, and well-balanced, with a harmonious sapidity that is never overpowering. Medium-bodied, intense, and persistent, it offers a light fruity-floral return and a delicate almond finish.

🥂 Aperitifs and starters
🍤 Fish and shellfish
