In the glass

Medium-bodiedHigh acidityDryLong finish

Aroma: citrus, white flowers, honey, medicinal herbs

Palate: citrus, minerality

Pecorino from a five hectare east-northeast plot planted in 2005, cropped at 50 hectolitres. The estate finds an elegant nose of citrus and white flowers rounded by honey, then a soft entry lifted by juicy acidity and nervy minerality.

What it pairs with

  • Risotto with cheese sauce
    Torre dei Beati points the wine at creamy, fat-leaning dishes where its acidity resets the palate.
  • Gnocchi with soft cheese
    Named by the estate, and the wine's minerality keeps the dish from cloying.
  • Fritto di paranza
    The producer suggests small fried fish, which the citrus edge lifts.

Frequently asked about Giocheremo con i Fiori Abruzzo Pecorino

What does Giocheremo con i Fiori taste like?

Straw yellow with light gold reflections, elegant on the nose with citrus and white flowers rounded by honeyed notes and a medicinal-herb lift. The palate enters soft and is carried by juicy acidity and nervy minerality.

How is it made?

Staggered picking in the estate's own vineyards, traditional non-intrusive vinification in steel, and six months on the lees in steel before bottling.

Is the estate organic?

Yes. Torre dei Beati converted the Loreto Aprutino vineyard to organic farming when the family took it over in 1999 and bottled its first wine in 2000.
