About this Wine

99 points & Best Italian White - Luca Maroni, Annual Italian Wine Guide.

'Highlighted by its clean and fresh appeal with hints of white fruits and fresh pineapple, and herbaceous, sage notes. Very Drinkable!' - Decanter Wine Awards

Produced in Abruzzo, this Pecorino is celebrated for its intense, fresh, and aromatic profile, boasting a high-concentration, "fruitylicious" style. Lively straw-yellow with green highlights, this Pecorino reveals enticing aromas of white stone fruits and ripe pears, with subtle balsamic nuances. On the palate, it is intense and concentrated, with a rounded, supple body. Well-balanced, it combines a soft texture with vibrant freshness, leading to a long, refreshing finish. Calalenta is known for specialised night harvesting (Calalenta means "cool night") to maintain their unique freshness.
