La Merlettaie Pecorino Offida DOC 2009
Varietal: 100% Pecorino
Reviews: “Here’s a Mediterranean-style wine with loads of character and depth for the money. The flavours span a broad range from sweet and resinous herbs, to lemon and lemon blossom, violets, wildflowers freshly cut hay, and on and on. The palate is generous and mouth filling, with excellent length and intensity. Match-made for serious fish or white meat (porchetta, rabbit fricassee) generously herb-flavoured and drizzled with olive oil and lemon. Tasted July 2011. Value Rating: ***” (John Szabo, Master Sommelier, winealign.com)

“Succulent ripe peaches, apricots, flowers and lightly honeyed tones are wrapped together in a soft, caressing frame in the 2009 Pecorino Le Merlettaie. Despite the plush style, this offers gorgeous overall balance not to mention tons of style. The expressive, perfumed fruit leaves a lasting impression on the finish. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2013.” (Antonio Galloni, erobertparker.com)
