A pure yet lively aroma with mineral and lime leaf notes

Place the Pecorino bottle in the refrigerator for 2 hours before serving to reach an ideal temperature of 8–10°C (46–50°F). If short on time, submerge the bottle in an ice bucket with equal parts ice and water for 20–30 minutes.

Chill the bottle

Select clean, stemmed white wine glasses. Pour a small carafe of chilled water and arrange a small plate with thin citrus slices (lemon or lime) for guests who enjoy a hint of citrus. Ensure ice bucket is ready if you will top up the bottle during service.

Prepare glassware and accompaniments

Use a waiter’s corkscrew to remove the foil and cork cleanly. If the bottle has a screwcap, twist off and wipe the lip with a clean cloth. Hold the bottle at the base and tilt gently when pouring.

Open the bottle

Pour about 120–150 ml (4–5 oz) per glass — roughly one-third full — allowing the wine to breathe and release its aroma. If serving a tasting flight, pour 60–90 ml per sample.

Pouring

Advise guests that Pecorino from Fattoria La Valentina offers a pure, lively aroma with mineral and lime leaf notes. Note its crisp acidity and medium body, making it versatile with seafood, light pastas, and fresh salads.

Tasting notes to share

Recork the bottle using the original cork or a reusable stopper. Store upright in the refrigerator. Consume within 2–4 days for best freshness; flavors may flatten after that.

Serve alongside oysters, grilled white fish, shrimp scampi, lemon-olive oil dressed salads, or simple pecorino cheese (to play off the grape name). The wine’s mineral and lime-leaf character complements seafood and herb-forward dishes.
