✨ Technical Specifications
Tenuta Ulisse Pecorino captures the expressive potential of the native Pecorino grape grown in the dynamic climate of Abruzzo, where cool Apennine breezes meet warm Adriatic warmth. Crafted using modern temperature-controlled technology and skin-contact maceration under inert gas, this dry white wine emphasizes high aromatic retention and vibrant minerality. Un-oaked to maintain purity, it showcases bright tropical fruit and herbal complexities unique to Abruzzo's clay-limestone hillsides.
