Jasci Pecorino

Donatello Jasci and his family tend the vines and produce the wines at Jasci (yah-shee) on an organic estate that covers 42 hectaires, or more than 90 acres. The estate has been certified organic since 1980 when Donatello’s mother developed a health problem related to the use of pesticides. Today, they are one of the only estates in the world to hold organic certification in every country in the world. Donatello’s approach in the cellar is consistent with his farming: clean and simple. The wines see little or no oak and have a purity of flavor that is rare at the price. In addition to his duties at the winery, Donatello Jasci has served as the President of the local Organic Growers’ Consortium. Elegant and delicate, showing aromas of grapefruit, apricots and nectarines. On the palate is pleasant, fresh and light-bodied.
