"Navicchio" Pecorino is golden yellow in hue and offers an aromatic bouquet of citrus, pineapple, mangoes, yellow nectarines, spice, bread crust and white pepper. The wine is well-balanced, fleshy and full-bodied, and full of yellow fruit, with notes of acacia, honey, lemon peel, grapefruit, spice and mineral undertones. The start is aromatic and powerful with beautifully interwoven wood, followed by a long, spicy aftertaste. 

"Navicchio" is made of 100% white Pecorino grapes from 50-year-old native vines, fanned by the breeze of the Adriatic Sea, and surrounded by olive groves at the foot of the mountain peaks of the Sibillini. The harvest is done entirely by hand. As soon as the grapes enter the cellar, they are gently pressed. Fermentation and maturation is done on the skins in cement and amphora.

Il Conte Villa Prandone was born in the heart of the Piceno region, in the hills of the characteristic medieval village of Monteprandone. The winery was founded as a company in 1988, but the first vineyards were cultivated in the 1960s. The vineyards were not yet owned at the time -- it was not until 1988 that part of the vineyard was purchased and the company was founded. In the 1990s, investments were made in their own brand and the winery was renovated. New plots were also purchased and more and more vineyards were planted.

"Navicchio" was rated one of the top wines of the year in Wine Spectator.
