The 2024 Chalmers Pecorino is a distinctive Heathcote white made from the Italian Pecorino variety, first imported to Australia by Chalmers in 2015. The nose is fresh and expressive, showing pear, green apple and citrus with subtle herbal, floral and mineral notes.
On the palate, it is dry and vibrant with bright acidity, juicy orchard fruit and a fine, textured feel. Citrus and pear are joined by savoury herbal notes and a mineral edge, leading to a crisp, focused finish that highlights Pecorino’s naturally refreshing character.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great choice for drinkers interested in Italian varieties and fresh, textural Australian whites. Best enjoyed young and pair with grilled prawns, calamari, fresh seafood, roast chicken, salads or light pasta dishes.
