Sorìa Frappato is the interpretation of an ancient indigenous grape variety. Link between traditional and modern agronomic techniques, this union refines the angularity of the dark color of the grapes, whose expression in the wine glass recalls the intense scents of the skin and grape seeds. It is a wine that invites you to enjoy the silence, to evoke distant mysterious places at sunset.

Kerin O Keefe, March 2022 (Vintage 2017)

Aromas of cedar, dark-skinned fruit and cooking spice shape the nose on this Frappato. On the forward palate, chewy tannins accompany ripe Marasca cherry, licorice and a dollop of vanilla.
