Falerio Pecorino Contetinelli 2019 La Torre del Nano
Variety: 100% Pecorino
Intense ruby red color with garnet shades, impenetrable to the eye.
Straw yellow color.
The nose is colored by aromas of ripe fruit, with yellow peaches, mangoes and pineapples. Intense yellow flowers and intriguing notes of star anise, precede the sensations of aromatic herbs with sage.
On the palate it is a dress sewn with class. Concrete, voluminous and well structured, it shines with minerality and freshness. Yet the sip is creamy and lengthens with persistence between aromas of exotic fruit, spices and iodine.
Overall it is a truly surprising interpretation of Pecorino, capable of winning a place among the good wines of the Marche.
