Vittoria Frappato
Vittoria, Sicily, Italy
Overripe cherry notes contrasted with high acidity. This one pales in comparison to other Frappato's we've tasted recently.

Very floral, some strawberries initially then gives room to Darjeeling tea. Likewise the texture.

Very effusive nose, but fresh and balanced on the palate.
Good clean cheap thrills.

Violet, slightly perfume, brewed tea leaf, red and black cherry, licorice, raisin, med plus tannin. Great frappato at its price point.

Jun 30th, 2018A little disappointing compared to 2015. Much more intense and a bit less balanced. Not great value at 25cdn a bottle.

Tannins were excessive. But suspect in a few years this will be a joy to drink. (I'm decanting so maybe it will be better later)
