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.
