A light dry fresh Sherry, pungent to the nose and pale straw in colour. To be enjoyed with aperitif and all kinds of fish and seafood dishes. Fresh with hints of yeast, dry and well balanced.

The love affair with alternative Italian varietals continues at David Hook wines. Pecorino is a new arrival, but it was well worth the wait. So latent yet complex.Very pale with a silver fleck. Grapefruit pith, yellow apple and almond aromas. Light-bodied yet very expressive with a bright mix of white and yellow fruit, an underlying nutty layer, mouth-watering acidity and a touch of talc-like grip.

The first traces of the Hugel family in Alsace can be traced back to the XVth century. Some two centuries later, Hans Ulrich Hugel settled in Riquewihr, which had been devastated by the terrible Thirty Years War. In 1639 he was made a freeman of the city and soon took charge of the very powerful Corporation of Winegrowers. In 1672 his son built a fine house in the Rue des Cordiers, and over the doorway was carved the family crest which was the origin of the company’s logo still used today.

Grown by a co-op of 400 growers over 2400 acres of ground in Salerno, this wine is a beautiful expression of Italian culture. The corporation of these farmers, both big and small, make this wine an affordable showcase of their combined centuries of winemaking expertise.
