PECORINO, TERRE DI CHIETI, IGT, 2023
Accattoli s.r.l.


Pecora is the Italian word for sheep, and the name of the grape reflects the close ties between agriculture and sheep farming since the grapes were grown on the hills where shepherds moved their herds in the summer. The early harvest makes for a wine with a firm structure and a deliciously fresh finish.
