Description

De Angelis Pecorino Offida DOCG

A woodpecker, a sacred animal to Mars, guided a populatio to the Tronto river banks. The Picenes, an ancient Italic people, were an important expression of civilization that flourished during the Iron Age. The province of Ascoli Piceno is today the heart of this people who expressed a civilization, seven centuries of which led the Picenes to dominate the heart of Europe.

The Tenuta De Angelis draws its origins from Piceno territory. In the 1950s the De Angelis family built their first winery for the vinification of the grapes grown on their own slopes as well as those of other local producers. These were years of intense work, new vineyards were planted in the municipalities of Offida and Castel di Lama. In 1985 a new winery was built to complete the production chain from the vineyard to the bottle.

Produced from millenary grapevines in the Piceno region. Few grapevines in the world produce such high levels of sugar and organic acid: this unique factor characterizes the sensory profile of a wine rich in freshness and warmth in a synergy of rare pleasantness.
