La Canosa
Product information
Peko' owes its name to the Offida Pecorino DOCG grape variety, whose history dates back to the Piceno tradition of sheep farming. It is said, in fact, that during the transhumance in our lands, this ripe grape was the favorite food of animals, hence "sheep grape". An ancient vine and romantically symbol of that inseparable bond between man, land and life, which today, more than ever, we would like to recover. Related to the margins of the oenological landscape until the 90s, thanks to an important research and development work started by local historical companies, in 2011 Offida Pecorino obtained the recognition of the DOCG, becoming one of the best Italian production.
Host information
The La Canosa winery is part of an estate located in the Piceno area, in the heart of the Marche region and takes its name from Poggio Canoso, one of the four castles in the municipality of Rotella. Among these magical valleys, immersed in the silence of the Sibillini Mountains National Park, the young entrepreneur Riccardo Reina, has chosen to give life to an ambitious wine project.
The Cantina La Canosa extends over 100 hectares of land and is located at the turn of the 43rd parallel, latitude recognized as particularly suited to the production of wines of excellence.
The vineyards extend over 26 hectares, right in the heart of the Val Tesino, behind the Monte dell'Ascensione, a place with a fertile position thanks to the thermal breezes that ensure a successful cultivation of the vine.
