100% Pecorino from Abruzzo, Italy. Vegan.

Diversitas is based in the Loreto Aprutino, in Abruzzo, Italy where Pecorino has been grown for centuries. In the mid 1900’s Pecorino vines were largely pulled up in favor of higher yielding grape varietals but in recent years the grape has been enjoying a resurgence of appreciation.

The wine is 100% Pecorino fermented and aged in stainless steel with indigenous yeasts to create a true expression of the grape.

Pale straw in color with a light green hue, the wine has an intense bouquet of white fruits and yellow blossoming ginestra. On the palate there’s juicy apple and peach notes with refreshing acidity.

The name “L’ Orso” literally means “the bear”, a reference to the Marsican brown bears that roam the Abruzzo National Park!
