Pecorino is a cheese that pairs beautifully with the kind of wine tastes you’ll find alongside ripe grapes, from coastal whites to light, juicy reds. Traditionally made in Italy, Pecorino means “sheep’s cheese”, and its character comes through in a distinctive balance of creamy texture and a gentle, tangy bite. Depending on the style, you may notice notes that range from fresh and milky to deeper, nuttier flavours with a firmer finish.

What makes Pecorino especially versatile is how well it welcomes different accompaniments. A younger Pecorino is often delightfully zesty and works wonderfully with salads, cured meats, and a drizzle of olive oil. As it matures, the flavour can become more robust and savoury, making it ideal for pasta, gratings, and hearty dishes where you want a bit more depth.

If you’re choosing a wine to match, consider how the cheese’s saltiness and acidity respond. Crisp whites and aromatic reds tend to cut through richness, while lightly structured wines can echo the cheese’s savoury edge. Browse the grape-led range and you’ll find plenty of pairings to suit your taste.
