2020 Occhipinti SP68 Rosso, Sicily, Italy

A blend of 70% Frappato and 30% Nero d'Avola.. The two varietals are native to Sicily and are grown on red sand soils over limestone rock, with vines averaging 15 years old on four different sites. The vines are organically farmed and hand-harvested. The fruit is mostly destemmed and co-fermented with native yeasts in concrete tanks and with a two-week skin maceration. The wine is aged in a concrete tank for 8 months and bottled unfiltered. The wine is named "SP68" for the road near Arianna's home vineyard in Vittoria.
