Two Italian wines from Tesco to drink with pasta
Two Italian wines from
Tesco
this week, both from the Abruzzo region of
Italy
. We are very familiar with Montepulciano d'Abruzzo, a great inexpensive, all-purpose wine that goes well with so many
foods
. Pecorino, a local grape variety that almost disappeared ten years ago, is less well-known. It has since been revived and is now used to make some excellent wines.
Tesco Finest Pecorino 2024, Terre d'Abruzzo
12% abv, €12 (€9 with Clubcard)
Lightly textured with rounded pear and peach fruits. This would make a great aperitif with antipasti, pasta dishes or with lighter fish dishes and creamy goat's cheese salads.
