Offida DOCG Pecorino Colle Vecchio by Tenuta Cocci Grifoni. A wine that is the result of the adventure and passion of Guido Cocci Grifoni. To him, in fact, must be given the merit of having rediscovered and been able to valorise an almost forgotten native grape variety, Pecorino, bringing it back to light with dedication and respect for its nature. Vineyards located at an altitude ranging from 180 to 250 metres above sea level, the fortunate mix of exposure, climate and soil create an ideal habitat for growing quality grapes. An environment in which Pecorino, an ancient and fascinating variety, is able to express itself at its best. Known for its ability to produce wines with marked acidity and great aromatic intensity, this vine is harvested by hand in the first ten days of September. Vinification then takes place at a controlled temperature to keep all the fresh, fruity aromas of Pecorino intact. At the end of the transformation, the wine matures in stainless steel for at least 6 months before being bottled and a further 3 months of bottle ageing. Colle Vecchio offers a rich and complex aromatic bouquet. On the nose, fruity notes of ripe pear initially emerge, followed by delicate floral sensations of lily of the valley and broom and tropical notes of mango. In the mouth, it is dry, with an impactful acidity that enhances its freshness. Accents of lemon grass and sage add further nuances to the sip, making it full and smooth. Ideal with fish starters, seafood and salads, but also with more complex dishes such as risotto, grilled fish and white meat.
