COS FRAPPATO 2023 - red

Style : Rocks & MineralsThe wine is made in a large area in the province of Ragusa and in part of the provinces of both Caltanissetta and Catania, ancient areas where viticulture has long thrived as is evident from documents dating back to the Third Century B.C. Cerasuolo di Vittoria as a type of wine dates back to the founding of the city of Vittoria, in 1607. Vittoria Colonna Henriquez-Cabrera who founded the city that year gave, as a gift, one hectare of land to the first 75 colonials who would grow vines on another hectare of land. The area received Denominazione d’Origine Controllata status in 1974. COS VITICOLTORIPerfumed and floral, the 2023 Frappato mixes geranium and violet tones with nuances of blood orange and blackberry. Lifted and graceful in style, it offers juicy acidity and crisp wild berry fruits that add lovely tart tension toward the close. The 2023 tapers off long and fresh with a perfumed, flowery resonance that lingers. ERIC GUIIDO, Vinous Region : Sicily, ITALYVariety : Frappato ABV: 11.5% Liquor Act 2007.
