About this Wine
Produced by the Casimirri family, who have lovingly tended their 49 acres of vines and olive groves in the Abruzzo region for more than half a century. You can't beat this wine if you've got a bit of a cheese fetish, as it shares its name with the famous formaggio. The Pecorino grape has been growing in Abruzzo for millennia - and the lucky sheep ('pecora' in Italian) in the area used to nibble on the grapes, hence the name.

Yummy!

Bought this alongside the red and loved it. I usually like Pinot Grigio but this was a great alternative and the bottle is good for the planet

bad taste, bad bottle

The wine tasted as if it was off, it was also not fully transparent which I suspect is the effect of the plastic bottle hiding inside a paper bottle. What a ridiculous packaging, it is actually worse ecologically! Glass bottle is straightforward recycling!

Interesting bottle, dull wine

Great talking point at a lunch party. Our friends loved the eco credentials, but no-one thought it was a good wine. Lacks bouquet and mouth flavour. Luckily I had a good alternative red wine to offer!

packaging yay \- taste nay

We bought it because of the packaging, but this white wine tasted very watery. We won't be buying it again.
