Gurrieri Vittoria Frappato 2025

This opens with a light and lifted soft cherry with some minerality and just there brewed black tea notes. In the glass this is almost translucent with a good palate presence and a lifted bright red berry tone. If chilled reds or spicy pastas are your vibe, this is a winner. - D&M TASTING NOTES

IMPORTER NOTES:

TASTING: “Frappato is an aromatic variety, unusual for a red grape. The wine is brilliant mid-red in color, with clear floral and berry/ pomegranate fruit notes and some spice and tea-leaf on the nose and the palate. Very useful food wine; I pair this with many pasta dishes, fish, pork, and roast chicken. Amazing with grilled tuna, and a clear candidate for the Summer Red Wine Hall of Fame. I drink it slightly chilled, but then any good red wine should be drunk at the temperature of a cool cellar.”

ABOUT THE PRODUCER: “The Gurrieri family has been growing grapes in the little town of Chiaramonte Gulfi, near Ragusa, since the 1960’s. Born and raised with a passion for agriculture, Giovanni Gurrieri continued his family’s tradition and began bottling his own wine in 2010. The dream was to create Sicilian wines representing the identity of the region. (Certified Organic)”
