Portelli, grower in the southern bastion of Vittoria, Frappato grape. Medium Ruby color with aromas of rec berry fruit and earthy herb spice. On the palate flavors of cherry and raspberry with minty herbs, floral and earthy notes. Full-bodied, well balanced chewy drying tannins on a smooth medium+ finish.

This was a serious frappato. It had more depth and structure than other frappatos I've had. Brooding dark fruit instead of crunchy bright fruit. Heft instead of grace. While I did enjoy this wine a lot, it just took itself too seriously. 100% Frappato. 2/28/23.

平均樹齢20-30年。標高150-200mの斜面で下層部は石ころで上層部は砂質粘土で全て手摘。ステンレスとセメントで野生酵母。26-30度発酵。ステンレスで1年間熟成。ノンコラージュ。ビオカレンダーで瓶詰め。とのことで、そんな感じの凝縮度の高い風味がムンムン。赤系果実、ミネラル、酵母。非常に高い酸!
