The 2010 Pecorino Casale Vecchio is an attractive white layered with expressive varietal fruit. Floral notes add complexity and lift to the creamy finish. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2013. Farnese makes a wide range of wines but I nearly always gravitate towards the low end, where there is less of an effort to build the wines in the cellar. It is clear the estate is working with high quality fruit. It would be nice to see a more restrained approach in the cellar. Importer: Empson, USA, Alexandria, VA; tel. (703) 684-0900

The 2007 Pecorino Casale Vecchio reveals notable richness in its soft-textured expression of ripe peaches, flowers and minerals. A generous, caressing white, it possesses excellent persistence, clarity and fine overall balance. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2009. These new releases from Farnese offer exceptional quality for the money. The wines are clean, correct and delicious, as long as the estate doesn’t stray too far from its core strength of making simple, well-made wines. Farnese offers two ranges in the value category, the first of these is a line of simple, varietal wines, while the Casale Vecchio series consists of special selections.
