Additional Information

Pecorino, normally known for its cheeses, is also a grape variety, particularly in Abruzzo. This top-notch wine comes from the region nestled between the Apennines and the Adriatic Sea! Talamonti strives for perfection in everything they do.

The company has its own laboratory to closely monitor all steps of the vinification process. Typical of the style of their wines is their full and round character. The term Trabocchetto was chosen because it refers to a traditional fishing technique from Abruzzo.

The vines that produce the grapes for this wine grow on limestone and sandstone soils in Abruzzo. The grapes for this white wine from Italy are harvested exclusively by hand when perfectly ripe. After harvesting, the grapes are immediately brought to the press, where they are selected and carefully crushed. This is followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. Once fermentation is complete, the Talamonti Trabocchetto Pecorino can rest for a few more months on its fine lees.
