Description

Pecora means sheep in Italian, and in keeping with that country s tradition of naming varietals for their likeness to animals, these grape clusters resemble a sheep s face! This fruit in particular is grown at high altitudes, in the central region of Abruzzo, benefiting from cooler temperatures and Adriatic breezes. So we get aromas and flavors of ripe pear and lime zest with chalky minerality on the finish.

Food Ideas: cacio y pepe pasta, braised radicchio w creamy garlic sauce, seared halibut w olive tapenade, grilled summer squash and parmesan croutons
