100% Frapatto
As with Nero d'Avola, Frappato also shows the oenological value of Sicily. It is able to give a powerful, persistent and very elegant wine. It hits the taster with the olfactory notes that characterise it in an unmistakable manner.
Feudi del Pisciotto Frappato is distinguished by its ruby red colour and a fresh bouquet of red berry fruits and sweet spices. Round on the palate, with a lively acidity, the wine is well balanced and persistent. Excellent with fresh cheeses and meats. But also with dishes based on particularly tasty fish.
Bright straw. Intense diesel fuel-like notes complicate apple and fresh citrus. Similar flavors to the aromas with a noteworthy saline bent on the long bright finish. Not unlike a trocken German Riesling with a little more southern Italian ripeness, but I find this almost too atypical for a Sicilian Grillo.
This wine is part of the Italian Fashion Top Designers Wine Collection, part of the proceeds of which go to restoring Sicilian monuments. Drink 2017- 2020
