Emidio Pepe, Pecorino, 2022 OOS but still with true Ribera

but still with true Ribera del Duero character

where vines are gently cooled by the wind blowing in from the Pacific Ocean

7PM to 9PM

yet still approachable in its youth

Structure and complexity are not sacrificed- graphite and earth combine with velvety tannin and the finish is elegant and long

Emidio Pepe, Pecorino, 2022 OOS but still with true RiberaChiara, the wineamker, describes this wine as the more talkative of the whites. Pecorino is the first grape harvested at Emidio Pepe. The bunches and grapes are small and they have thick skins. This translates to a textural wine. The wine is creamy, oily and powerful. It has the same pithy acidity that we see in the Trebbiano and has the same tension and energy but with a chalky texture. A special example of Pecorino.
