Terre di Chieti IGT, 100% Pecorino, Mr. Peco is one of the good wines from the area offered by Casal Thaulero. Pecorino, a curiosity, owes its name to the particular resemblance of its clusters to a sheep's head and is indigenous to central Italy, where it is used to make many good everyday wines. In this case, Casal Thaulero's technicians work it exclusively in steel, in order to make the most of the freshness of the initial fruit. In the glass, it has a beautiful, bright, lively straw yellow colour. On the nose, it reveals a broad and complex bouquet, with fruity notes of peach and apricot, mingling with floral hints of white and yellow flowers. The finish is balsamic and adds a touch of elegance and freshness to the aromatic profile. In the mouth, however, this wine proves to be fresh, mineral. Well balanced, thanks to the excellent acidity that balances its structure, it is appropriately persistent. Mr. Peco seems born to accompany seafood hors d'oeuvres and fish first courses, but it also goes well with sushi and white meats. A wine of beautiful versatility, there is only one rule to follow when uncorking it: it should always be shared, with friends and people who make us feel good.
Casal Thaulero represents a symbol of oenological excellence and long tradition, capable of conveying the history and beauty of Abruzzo through its wines. The winery boasts an ancient and fascinating history. Its name, for example, comes from the locality of Casal Thaulero, situated between the hills of Abruzzo and the Adriatic Sea. It was here that the Thaulero family, of military origin and from Hamburg, lived. They settled in Abruzzi in the 16th century and received a direct mandate from Charles V to oversee the area and, thanks to the work of Giovanni Thaulero, became the forerunners of viticulture in Abruzzi. Giovanni, in fact, wrote numerous treatises on viticulture and experimented with avant-garde agricultural techniques, planting modern vines and restoring his estates. This passion inspired a number of vine growers to unite and, in 1961, a cooperative winery was born, with the aim of producing and exporting Abruzzi wines to the world. Casal Thaulero was the first Abruzzi cooperative to bottle and export DOC wines to NAFTA countries, back in 1968. Since 2005, the winery has moved to new premises in the city of Ortona. Here, the winemaking tradition of Abruzzo continues to be cultivated with the same passion and commitment as always.
