"This certified-organic bottling from the Marche illustrates why Pecorino has become one of the most buzzed-about Italian varietals. Local custom has it that the sheep (pecore) who wander Offida’s vineyards enjoy stealing mouthfuls of the sweet grapes off the vine, giving the variety its name. Who can blame them? Showing off vivid peach-skin and jasmine aromas, a round, juicy texture, and chalky minerality on the finish, this oak-free white combines the refreshment we crave on humid summer evenings with the richer texture to complement grilled fish."
