Ciavolich Giuseppe 2008 Pecorino (Colline Pescaresi)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $24
This is a very special wine from central Italy made with Pecorino grapes (a variety that is currently experiencing and happy revival). The wine opens with a golden-amber color and offers spicy aromas of pastry cream, vanilla, spice, exotic fruit, honey and apricot. It’s a big, structured white wine to pair with pork or veal.  — M.L.  (3/1/2011)
