A small and delicately pale grape, Pecorino is happy from the higher altitudes to the foothills to the coast, and thrives in Abruzzo (though you'll also find it in the Marche, Umbria, Liguria and Tuscany). The grape itself has an exceptionally high sugar content and tends to reflect the terroir without reserve: it is both sensitive and expressive, not unlike Pinot Noir, so it is a grape for a patient and passionate winemaker. Another nice thing about Pecorino - especially for white wine lovers - is the complexity you can find in a relatively young and affordable bottle. In a similarly priced Pecorino, you will get much more than a two-dimensional crunchy Pinot Grigio or a slate Sauvignon Blanc you get character, evident terroir, a richer aromatic profile than what often accompanies "fresh" white wines - notes of fruits of forest, flowers, dried herbs, minerality, all balanced by an acid freshness and a slightly heavier mouthfeel (thank you, sugar)
Vine to be rediscovered ancient variety that gives persistence, harmonious and slightly balsamic flavor with notes of citrus and garden fragrances. Made exclusively with Pecorino. Raw fish and shellfish, fish dishes in general; also excellent with fresh or stretched curd cheeses.

The name "Nerie" is linked to the name of a valiant Etruscan leader. In the archaeological excavations carried out in Villalfonsina in 1914, many artifacts were found that highlight the presence in the 6th-5th century BC of trade with the Etruscan area. Among others, bronze statuettes depicting a knight on horseback and a red impasto olla bearing the silhouette of the same knight and the inscription “ne” (probable abbreviation of the individual name Nerie). The label of our “Nerie” is inspired by a bronze disc with the aforementioned rider on horseback in relief. The wine shows a deep straw yellow color with golden hues and greenish reflections. Floral, aromatic, very pleasant on the palate, it is full-bodied, structured, persistent and with excellent freshness due to the consistent acid structure of the grape.
Straw yellow with a good load of color to the eye. The nose is clean and punctual, characterized by fruity hints of apricot, pear and tropical fruit, then completed by chalky and floral nuances of chamomile. Savory and fresh on the palate, with good balance and good length.
Perfect to accompany seafood cuisine, it is excellent to be paired with pan-fried mullets.
