There’s a lot of talk about Arianna Occhipinti’s wines, especially in the world of natural wine. This young Sicilian from the Vittoria region, with immeasurable talent, got her start at a very young age and produces wines of great purity and incredible energy. In this SP68 cuvée, the finesse of Frapatto is wonderfully combined with the very mature and imposing character of Nero d'Avola, both indigenous grape varieties of Sicily. No wood is used in this fruity wine with a soft power that will work wonders with cannelloni stuffed with ricotta and eggplant alla parmigiana.

(Automatically translated) The incredible talent of winemaker Arianna Occhipinti stands out in the quality of her wines. A blend of two grape varieties; Frappato (finesse) and Nero d'Avola (riper, imposing character) go together wonderfully! Unfiltered, a slight deposit and a low percentage of alcohol!
(Automatically translated) What eloquence that wine is! The aromas of black cherry, but also pomegranate and strawberry, are gently joined by animal notes. And if freshness and velvety remain the order of the day thanks to the frappato, the nero d'avola brings its share of tannins, here woven tightly, even melted.
