Caparrone Pecorino Colline Pescaresi is a beautifully fresh, zesty white wine hailing from the sun-drenched Adriatic coast of Abruzzo, Italy. Crafted under the expert guidance of the Pasetti family, this expressive wine showcases the incredible potential of the native Pecorino grape, a variety that has undergone a magnificent quality renaissance. It captures the breezy, maritime essence of the region, offering a bright, mineral-rich drinking experience of exceptional value.

Why You'll Love It

This is Pecorino at its most vibrant, approachable, and refreshing. Grown by a pioneering estate known for producing pure and elegant coastal wines, it strikes a perfect balance between expressive, sun-ripened stone fruits and a clean, stony mineral depth. It represents a fantastic, characterful alternative to standard Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc, delivering an extra layer of textural complexity and a thirst-quenching, saline finish that makes it incredibly easy to love.

Vineyard & Production

The grapes are sourced from the hillside vineyards of the Caparrone district, located in the Collecorvino hills northwest of Pescara. Here, the vines benefit from brilliant daytime sunshine and cooling Adriatic sea breezes, which preserve the grape's signature high acidity. Following a careful harvest, the juice is fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats to lock in the pristine fruit aromatics. The wine is then aged on its fine lees for two months, a crucial step that coaxes out a delicate, rounded texture and deeper varietal character without the need for oak.

Tasting Notes

Pouring a bright straw yellow, this lively white wine opens with an inviting, expressive bouquet of ripe stone fruit, zesty citrus, and pink grapefruit. On the palate, it is wonderfully crisp and structured, unfolding with layers of juicy peach, tropical melon, and a distinctive flinty minerality. A refreshing spine of vibrant acidity cuts through the fleshy fruit flavours, leading to a long, clean finish with a subtle, lip-smacking saline lift.

Perfect Pairings

An exceptional food companion, this coastal white is a natural match for fresh seafood and classic Mediterranean dishes. It pairs magnificently with whole roasted turbot, grilled sea bass, or spaghetti alle vongole. It is also a wonderful partner for light poultry dishes, summer salads, and asparagus, or enjoyed alongside fresh, creamy cheeses such as pecorino or a soft goat's cheese.
