Description

Falerio is a DOC in the Marche region made from three authorised white grapes, the principal ones being Trebbiano and Pecorino.

The Ciu Ciu Falerio Bianco is a blend made from all the white grapes grown on the Ciu Ciu estate, including the very rare Passerina, which is found mainly in the Marche region. Despite the tasty name, Pecorino appears only linked to the cheese of the same name due to sheep liking to munch on Pecorino grapes.

This is a wine that screams "Drink me now!". It has beautiful aromas of lychee, peach and honeysuckle, and is surprisingly medium bodied, so it has some nice weight on the palate. It would go perfectly with any kind of seafood or light pasta dish.

This wine is produced in the hilly territories of the Ascoli Piceno province, approximately 300 metres above sea level. The autochthon vines, Pecorino and Passerina, successfully joined to Trebbiano, ennoble and characterize the wine, that can be drunk few months after the harvest. it has a delicate, straw yellow colour with green shades that emphasizes its light acidity and freshness. The bouquet is sweet with a fruit and white flowers perfume. The taste is fresh and slightly bitter.
