AboutVini Aurora
A group of friends started Vini Aurora in Offida in the late 1970s, choosing to build their working lives around farming. A new generation now helps run the 32-hectare farm, where vines grow alongside olive and fruit trees, fields and woodland.
Aurora helped establish the regional organic-farmers association and later co-founded Terroir Marche, a group of organic and biodynamic growers. Cover crops and beneficial insects are part of the farming, and the wines ferment spontaneously.
Vini Aurora 2018 Fiobbo Offida Pecorino
Italian White
$52.99
The yellow colour is bright without being deep. A slight initial reserve gives way to fresh floral character with a touch of botrytis. The palate is both soft and incisive, with acidity, salinity and freshness alongside a lightly mentholated finish. Pecorino is the sole variety. Half of the wine ferments and matures in large barrels, with the remainder handled in stainless steel; both parts age for a year before blending.
