'Frappato comes from my dream of a girl to make a wine that knew of the earth I work, of the air I breathe, and of my own thoughts. It is sour, sanguine and elegant. It is Vittoria and the Iblei mountains. It is the wine that most resembles me, courageous, original and rebellious. But not only. It has peasant origins, for this reason it loves its roots and the past it carries inside; but, at the same time, it is able to fight to improve itself. He knows refinement without ever forgetting himself.' - Arianna Occhipinti

Frappato is Sicily's answer to chillable, easy-drinking red wines. These bottles are loaded with bright acidity and marked by low levels of tannins, with a structure very reminiscent of Pinot Noir, although it's genetically related to Sangiovese.
Gergenti Frappato is made with organically grown grapes, and it embodies the unique charm of Sicily. The grapes are handpicked in early August. After the harvest, the grapes are left to be macerated with their skins for 6 days. Manolactic fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks. Look for juicy red fruits, a little spice, like summer in a bottle.

"This is one of the most interesting and expressive wines to come from the Vittoria area of Sicily. The 2018 Frappato is tonic and sharp, linear and direct. But don't assume that this is an easy wine: It reveals more depth and nuances than you might expect. What I love most about Frappato is that it always renders a naked, authentic and transparent expression. That frankness is here too, but the folks at COS have brilliantly added their own little tweaks with touches of balsam herb and bitter almond that appear randomly along the way. This wine is only aged in cement, no oak is used. Some 38,000 bottles were made."

Naturally fermented wine with no sulphur and vegan friendly. It shows notes of plums, fig, baking spices, espresso, an Italian varietal that is doing just fine in South Australia.
