Structured, aromatic whites with firm acidity and an ample mouth, featuring aromas of citrus, yellow peach, aromatic herbs (sage, thyme), almond, white flowers and saline mineral notes. Fine length and ageing capacity. Star of Offida Pecorino DOCG in the Marche and Abruzzo Pecorino DOC, driving force behind the revival of great modern Adriatic whites. Native Italian grape rediscovered in the 1980s after near-disappearance.
DOCG of Umbria around the medieval town of Montefalco. Sagrantino as sole autochthonous grape, among the most tannic in the world (record phenolic content).
