A modern take on the traditions of Abruzzo, this classy Pecorino comes from mountain foothills near Pescara. It was fermented in a mix of terracotta amphorae and large, neutral French oak barrels, and fermented with local yeast. It was then aged in amphorae and very large, neutral Slavonian oak vats for around 2 years. Unfiltered.
If you like white Burgundy, try this charming central-Italian! Starting with a deliciously savory, toasted nut aroma, the wine gradually loosens up in the glass with fragrant hints like rose, fragrant herbs and lemon zest against freshly-toned stone fruit like nectarine. Rounded and generous on the palate, the firm acidity reins it in to an extended finish with a hint of unctuousness, balancing savory and fruity. Delicious, refreshing and structured! Try it with richer seafood or roasted chicken with herbs and lemon. Serve around 58F.
"The 2021 Pecorino Fosso Cancelli opens with a tropical burst of citrus that gives way to rubbed sage and nectarines. Juicy and wickedly fresh, this gains depth and complexity through a core of salty minerality as tart orchard fruits cascade throughout. It ends with kiwi and minty herb notes, finishing long and staining while leaving the mouth watering for more. " - Eric Guido, VINOUS MEDIA
