Description

The Pecorino IGP Colline Pescaresi "Fosso Cancelli" by Ciavolich is a white wine that captures the essence of the native Abruzzese Pecorino variety. Cultivated in the fertile hills of Pescara, this wine is the result of meticulous selection of the best grapes, conferring superior quality and a distinctive character.

Visually, it presents a bright straw yellow color with greenish reflections. On the nose, it offers a complex and intensely aromatic bouquet, with floral notes of hawthorn and acacia, enriched by nuances of ripe yellow fruits such as peach and melon, with a slight touch of spices and minerality.

On the palate, the Fosso Cancelli is vibrant and fresh, with extraordinary acidity that perfectly balances its structure. The flavor lingers elegantly, leaving a pleasantly long and savory sensation that invites another sip. An ideal choice for those seeking a white wine that combines tradition and modernity, capable of versatile pairing with light appetizers, fish-based dishes, or fresh cheeses.

Thanks to its intensity and structure, this wine demonstrates how Ciavolich’s Pecorino is among the most representative and appreciated in its category.
