This Pecorino wine shouldn't be confused with the Italian sheep's cheese of the same name. But just like the cheese, Pecorino wine is a delectable treat. For a long time, winemakers throughout Italy avoided the grape, but the winemakers of central Italy, particularly those in Abruzzo, decided to give this headstrong white grape a chance. It has now clearly gained a foothold, and you can safely wake us up in the middle of the night for a delicious glass of Abruzzo Pecorino.

The wines of Ponte Levatoio

The Abruzzo wine region is one of Italy's smaller wine regions. Despite the dominance of larger winemakers like Tuscany, Sicily, Puglia, and Veneto, the popularity of Abruzzo wines is steadily growing. The era of the isolated Montepulciano D'Abruzzo is over. Ponte Levatoio has capitalized on this trend perfectly. It is one of the larger players in Abruzzo and is located primarily in the eastern half of the region. In and around Maiella, it owns a whopping 2,700 hectares, almost literally dominating Abruzzo viticulture.

Impressions of Ponte Levatoio Pecorino

Pecorino is a tricky grape. It's not particularly productive and is also extremely susceptible to oxidation and mold. However, with enough attention and proper handling, it can create formidable wines. Ponte Levatoio Pecorino is living proof. The grapes come from somewhat older vines, ensuring a certain level of quality. By resting the juice in stainless steel for three months after fermentation, Ponte Levatoio Pecorino gains sufficient depth. Besides aromatic citrus and white fruit, this white wine also possesses complexity: take a sip and be amazed by the nuances of roasted almonds, a touch of bitterness, and a hint of balsamic vinegar.
