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
Winery notes (2023 Vintage)
"The wine has a bright yellow colour with greenish tinges. Fruity aroma with citrus, tropical nuances, white peach and exotic fruits like papaya. It has a lingering and very fresh taste with a slightly balsamic finish. Medium acidity and good structure. It can be successfully matched with fish entrées, flavoured raw fish, shell fish, all fish dishes."
97/100 Luca Maroni, Annual Italian Wine Guide (2023 Vintage)
''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.''
