About this wine
Vineyard and terroir
The Pecorino fruit is grown in the municipality of Controguerra in northern Abruzzo, between the Adriatic Sea and the Apennines. The vineyards face southwest at 250 m above sea level and have clay-rich soils.
Vinification
The grapes are harvested by hand and selected before fermentation. Most of the must ferments in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks at 16–18 °C, while approximately 10% ferments in oak barrels.
Ageing
The portion fermented in oak remains in barrel for four months.
