Nestore Bosco Pecorino 2024

candied lemon peel, key lime, fresh Gala apple, and Asian pear

The 2021 of this bottling has been a top seller for us in 2023 and we are excited to announce that the new 2022 has arrived, a richer and more dramatic wine due to a warm vintage. 

Located in the high-altitude province of Pescara in Italy’s Abruzzo region, the Bosco family have been producing wines here for over a century. Though predominantly known for their red wines made from Montepulciano, there standout is the Pecorino, a white variety only grown on the steep hillsides of the Adriatic coast.

To maximize the fruit-forward characteristics of Pecorino, this wine is fermented exclusively in stainless steel. Temperature control is used to block malolactic conversion, which results in a leaner, more citrus-driven wine with plenty of natural acidity. On the palate, this wine is concentrated and mineral-driven with notes of candied lemon peel, key lime, fresh Gala apple, and Asian pear. Drink now through 2025 with grilled shrimp with lemon or baked goat cheese.
