There are various hypotheses on the origin of the name of this wine: according to the first one, the grape was so named after the shepherds, bringing their flocks to pasture, realised that sheep were attracted by the grapes which they seemed to particularly like. The second hypothesis links the wine to the homonymous cheese, with which it shares the same liveliness of flavour. According to the third hypothesis, the name pecorino comes from the similarity between the shape of the bunches and a sheep's head (in Italian pecora).
