What kind of wine is Abruzzo Pecorino DOC 2023 - Tenuta I Fauri?
Abruzzo Pecorino DOC 2023 - Tenuta I Fauri is a still white wine produced in the heart of Abruzzo, a land overlooking the Adriatic Sea and extending to the foothills of the Apennines. It is made from Pecorino grapes, an indigenous grape variety rediscovered in recent decades for its ability to combine freshness, structure, and intense aromas. This wine stands out for its modern and immediate style, with a fresh, citrusy, and mineral profile, perfect for those seeking a lively yet elegant white wine, ideal for drinking young.Vintage details
The 2023 vintage in Abruzzo was characterized by a mild and dry spring, followed by a balanced summer, without excessive heat. The temperature fluctuations between day and night, especially in the hilly areas where Tenuta I Fauri is located, favored the slow ripening of the grapes and preserved their natural acidity. The result is a Pecorino with a clear aromatic profile and an excellent balance between body and freshness.Winemaking and aging
The winemaking of Abruzzo Pecorino DOC 2023 - Tenuta I Fauri takes place in stainless steel tanks, a technique that allows the varietal aromas and the fragrance of the grape to be preserved intact. After controlled temperature fermentation, the wine remains on its fine lees for a few months — the "lees" are the yeasts remaining after fermentation, which give greater complexity and softness. No wood aging is planned, to best enhance the fresh and mineral character of the grape variety.Tasting notes
