Torre dei Beati Pecorino Abruzzo 2022

Torre dei Beati Pecorino Abruzzo 2022Certified organic since 1999, Torre dei Beati is just five minutes away from the rare, legendary cult estate Valentini. Soft, dusty, confectionary, and floral aromas. Rich, lush, and slightly spicy on the palate, it's a bigger white wine suited for cheeses, pt, cream based dishes, or even lobster. It has the salty edge you expect from Pecorino with some herbal complexity and depth that you don't always find. Jonathan Kemp

and a little butterscotch

The property is in the small village of Santomeri (population 164)

quite literally from the ground up

Reguengo operates as an organic vineyard and pretty swanky hotel

The other quarter of the cuvée is made up of fruity

My father was able to work without chemicals so why can't I

For this wine all fruit was direct pressed and cold settled for 24 hours before being racked to 5 year old French oak barrels for spontaneous primary and malolactic fermentation

Stored in a professional temperature controlled facility

Subtly funky

where Vincenzo Angileri and his family were farmers simply selling fruit to the bigger wine 'factories

but at a fraction of the price

and an herbal edge
