2022 Torre dei Beati, Abruzzo Pecorino DOC "Giocheremo con i Fiori"

According to Italian wine expert/author Ian D’Agata, the revival of Pecorino in Abruzzo is 'one of Italy’s biggest wine success stories of the twenty-first century.

One of Italy’s most famous (and widely planted) white grape varieties is Trebbiano. It is the signature white variety of the Abruzzo region, and while there are a few internationally recognized wines from the grape, there’s another variety many locals believe is superior: Pecorino. Not to be confused with sheep’s milk cheese, Pecorino is a white grape which, like a lot of the most “noble” native varieties, fell out of favor in the 20th century as farmers sought more productive cultivars. It produces a more structured, substantial white than Trebbiano, with a combination of extract and acidity reminiscent of Chardonnay.
