Staff Pick Notes

As the story goes Pecorino wines were originally enjoyed by sheepherders (and according to some the sheep themselves) as they moved their sheep throughout Tuscany. The resulting cheese from these sheep we all know as Pecorino makes some of the best classic Roman pasta dishes, and their corresponding wine is the single best pairing.

However this wine is not too rich, it also has a bright and lively note of fresh cut hay. All of this together makes an amazing year round white wine.
