CasalFarneto Pecorino comes from the hillside of Ascoli Piceno province, on a hard clayey soil with southeast exposure. The process of “vinification” involves a soft pressing of the clusters and a thermo-controlled fermentation. The refining phase takes three months in steel and at least two months in bottle.

Perfume: Characteristic varietal odour, quite intense and persistent of fruit and white flowers, acacia and broom.
Flavour: It is a wine of great varietal expression. In the palate the smell sensations are confirmed and develop in balance between freshness and flavour. Fine, persistent, with a slightly bitter aftertaste.
Pairings:
As an aperitif, with seafood dishes and vegetable soups, medium structured cheeses and the classic “Oliva Ascolana del Piceno” (breaded olives stuffed with meat).
