2023 Occhipinti Frappato Terre Siciliane

Frappato 2023 di Arianna Occhipinti is a monovarietal red wine produced exclusively from Frappato grapes grown in 40‑year‑old, organic and biodynamic vineyards located in Vittoria on the southern slopes of the Monti Iblei, within the Terre Siciliane IGT. The harvest, completed between September and October, is followed by fermentation using indigenous yeasts and a 15‑day maceration period. Post‑fermentation, the wine is matured for 6 months in cement tanks and 30 days in glass vessels, with some profiles also incorporating wood‑aging techniques. This production process, rooted in traditional peasant practices, reflects the distinctive terroir and Mediterranean character of southeastern Sicily.
