Pecorino? You know it as sheep's milk cheese! Here in the Marche region, pecorino is above all an indigenous grape variety with a centuries-old tradition on the slopes of the Piceno Apennines. And what Saladini Pilastri makes from it is beautiful – organically vinified and with the character that makes this underrated region so special. The Saladini Pilastri organic winery cultivates four hectares of Pecorino vines in the municipalities of Spinetoli and Monteprandone, 150 metres above sea level. Here, on alluvial soils rich in gravel, they grow in an east-north-east orientation – perfect for the natural acidity and minerality that characterise this variety. 4,200 vines per hectare in the Guyot system, hand-picked in the first week of September when the grapes have reached their optimum balance.

The result is a white wine with a lot of personality: straw yellow in the glass, with a bouquet that ranges from citrus fruits to white flowers and delicate herbal notes. The palate is structured and enveloping, with the lively acidity and mineral depth that makes the interplay between the two terroirs of Spinetoli and Monteprandone so unique. The final surprises with salty, mineral notes – a wine that clearly reveals its origins. Perfect with seafood, grilled fish or a hearty vegetable soup. An honest organic wine from an honest region that proves it: The Marche can also do white wine! And Pecorino is definitely more than just cheese. SUPERIORE.DE
