Umbria wine and cheese

Pecorino di Norcia with Montefalco Sagrantino DOCG

Our pick

The pecorino is piquant; Sagrantino is a tannic, long red. Salt and fat soften the tannin, and the wine's fruit stands up to the sharpness. An aged wedge has the weight to meet it.

Pecorino stagionato in botte with Montefalco Rosso DOC

Our pick

A sliceable sheep's milk pecorino rubbed with olive oil and herbs wants a red with grip but not heavy tannin. Sangiovese-led Montefalco Rosso gives red fruit, medium tannin and freshness that carry the thyme and mint notes.

Caciottone di Norcia with Grechetto

Our pick

Qualigeo describes a milky, cooked-butter aroma, a tender paste and a delicate flavour. A dry Grechetto with medium to high acidity cuts the cream without covering it. Best with the young dolce type.
