Sourced from the Terre di Chieti ICP of Abruzzo, this is the top example of Pecorino that the team at Tenuta Ulisse produce each year. . The white wine is made in a new world style, with passionfruit aromas jumping out of the glass with citrus and white florals. On the palate, it is wonderfully fresh with lemon zest, fruit, and a great acidity and a lick of salt. This is tight, classy pecorino and definitely worth a look

''No Italian white boasts and reveals an aromatic integrity as crystalline as that of a glass of Tenuta Ulisse Terre di Chieti Pecorino. The varietal aromas stand out with a clearness and a fragrance that make them absolutely shine. Their native perfumes display aromatic results that excite the senses. This is a wine of maximum value: the dense grape, perfectly ripe and clear as in nature, has a power of aroma and a spectacular allure. Supreme.''
