Description

The Pecorino Terre di Chieti IGT produced by Zaccagnini is an exemplary choice for those who appreciate characterful and high-quality white wines. Presented in a practical and modern 3-liter Bag in Box format, it ensures freshness and the preservation of its organoleptic characteristics over an extended period due to reduced oxidation.

This wine best expresses the peculiarities of the Pecorino grape, native to Abruzzo, renowned for its ability to produce aromatic and structured wines. On the nose, Zaccagnini's Pecorino Terre di Chieti IGT delights with intense aromas of white fruits like pear and apple, with light floral notes and a hint of aromatic herbs that reflect the fertile land of Chieti.

On the palate, it reveals a balanced structure, supported by a fresh acidity and flavors that mirror the aromatic bouquet, with an elegant minerality that prolongs its persistence. The present alcohol is harmoniously balanced with the other components, making this wine perfect to accompany fish dishes, seafood, or fresh cheeses.

Zaccagnini's Pecorino Terre di Chieti IGT is not only a testament to the value of native Italian grapes but also a symbol of innovation that respects tradition, presented in a format that ensures practicality and environmental respect, ideal for informal occasions or for those who wish to enjoy good wine every day without waste.

Winery history

The winery was established as a family-run business in Bolognano and over time has developed a strong territorial identity centered on native Abruzzo grape varieties and the emblematic "Tralcetto". The company website and promotional materials state that the modern history of the estate begins in 1978; documents from the Argea group cite an alternative date, so public sources disagree on the exact year of foundation. In 2023 Cantina Zaccagnini joined the Argea group; the estate is also known for having transformed its cellar spaces into a venue for art since the 1980s.

Production philosophy

Highlighting the Abruzzo region and its native grape varieties with an approach that blends tradition and modern techniques, the brand also conveys a strong artistic sensibility, presenting visual culture as an integral part of the wine experience.

Terroir and vineyards

The vineyards are located on the hills of Pescara in Abruzzo, in a territory that ranges from the Apennine Mountains to the Adriatic coast. The estate reports vineyards distributed across the Colli Pescaresi with microclimatic conditions moderated by mountain breezes.
