About The Wine

Il Frappato was born from my childhood dream of making a wine that tastes like the land I work, the air I breathe, and my own thoughts. It is tart, sanguine and elegant. It is Vittoria and the Iblei mountains. It is the wine that most resembles me, courageous, original and rebellious. He has peasant origins, which is why he loves his roots and the past he carries within.” 

words from Arianna Occhipinti

 

100% Frappato from 35 year old vines, biodynamically grown, hand harvested. Wild ferment in concrete vessels and 25 days macerated on skins. 

Maturation: 6 months in concrete tanks, 1 month in bottle, in concrete tanks and a part in 30 HL Austrian oak barrels for 14 months, 1 month in bottle.
