Tasting Notes: The De Sterlich Pecorino is full and round, rich, yet light on its feet with balanced acidity against the orchard fruit flavors of the Pecorino grape. Complex aromas of yellow fruit, beeswax and pine meld seamlessly with a cavalcade of orchard fruit and spice on the palate. Weighty yet nimble thanks to a nice swipe of acidity, this is perfect with hard cheeses or roast chicken.
Estate History: Tenuta De Sterlich is a small biodynamic winery nestled between the Adriatic Sea and the Gran Sasso Mountain chain in the Appenine Mountains. The winery makes elegant wines reflecting, as purely as possible, their pristine terroir which has been farmed biodynamically since the winery’s inception. The winery was founded in 2017 by two friends, Roberto Fracassa and Alessandro Massacesi, from the nearby city of Teramo. For a relatively young winery, De Sterlich is making very pretty, crunchy, and elegant wines.
