Denomination: Terre di Chieti PGI Grape variety: Pecorino
The charm of its mineral essence is unparalleled. Splendid for the stylistic rigor that stands out for its power and roundness. Perfect balance between acidity and freshness. Particular, unique, unrepeatable. The reason for the denomination equal to the well-known cheese is uncertain but it is probably due to the seasonal movements of the shepherds who, returning from the mountain areas in September, brought their flocks to graze on the vineyards where the fruit had already been harvested.

The carefully selected grapes are pressed directly with the aid of inert gases in order to avoid any potential oxidation. The must obtained is clarified with a stop at a low temperature which allows decantation. The clean fraction is sent to fermentation with the addition of a part of skins and indigenous yeasts. During the fermentation phase, regular punching down is carried out which allows the extraction of natural tannins from the peel which preserve the integrity of the wine. At the end of fermentation, the wine obtained is decanted with the aid of inert gases and ages for 3 months on the yeasts that carried out the fermentation, followed by stabilization and bottling.

Our first hectare, the one from which the history of Pecorino began. The first parent of Colle Vecchio is today dedicated to Guido Cocci Grifoni and to the bottle that bears his name. It is our most recent version of Pecorino, a wine made in a few numbered specimens, in memory of who, where and when. And not to praise or glorify the past, but to photograph a moment of our past that has become present and future. Using descriptors today, for a wine that will have a life of more than ten years, seems almost out of place. Only a few notes therefore, to give a reference, a trace of his first, very young expressions. Among our whites it is certainly the fullest, the most saline, the most present and the softest. It opens with notes of ripe apple and then moves on to intense and fleshy yellow flowers. The aromatic herbs come forward decisively, accompanying a fascinating scent of star anise.
