Tasting Notes

This Vittoria DOC captures the distinctive personality of Sicily terroir. With 13% alcohol, it strikes a confident balance between body and freshness. Crafted from Frappato 100%, this wine expresses the unique terroir characteristics. The palate shows depth and structure, with a finish that lingers pleasantly. The fruit is sourced from vineyards on soils at 700 m a.s.l. of medium consistency tending to limestone. Vinification: alcoholic and malolactic fermentation in stainless steel at controlled temperature. The wine is aged a few months in steel tanks and then in the bottle. A wine capturing Sicily's sun-soaked character and ancient viticultural roots.
