Arianna Occhipinti's “Il Frappato IGT BIO 2022" is an excellent demonstration of the potential of Frappato grapes. This wine is characterized by its intense ruby red color, which is a clear sign of its youth and freshness. Its bouquet is rich in nuances of red fruits such as raspberries, pomegranates and red cherries, complemented by floral and herbal notes that underline its aromatic complexity. On the palate, the wine reveals an elegant medium-bodied structure, fine tannins and an invigorating acidity, which gives it a refreshing vivacity. The aromas confirm the olfactory impressions, with the focus on fruitiness and accompanied by a delicate mineral note that gives it a particular

depth.

The grape variety of this wine is 100% Frappato, a grape typical of southern Sicily, known for its bright, expressive and aromatic qualities. Frappato grapes grow particularly well on the region's sandy and calcareous soils, which contribute to the complexity and terroir expression of the wine.

A special feature of this wine lies in its production: The wine is produced using biodynamic principles, which means that natural processes are promoted in the vineyard and in the winery in order to protect the environment and preserve the authenticity of the terroir. “Il Frappato” is not only an expression of the Frappato grape, but also of Vittoria's unique landscape and climate, making it a particularly interesting wine for connoisseurs and enthusiasts who value sustainable and

environmentally conscious production methods.
