The Pecorino Superiore by Orlandi Contucci Ponno is a fresh , structured wine, with marked varietal acidity obtained from Pecorino grapes , of which it is made up of 100%, we are talking about a vine recovered in the early 90s after they had almost been lost in the past traces after the destruction of phylloxera and consequently abandoned and replaced with more productive and, therefore, more profitable varieties.
