Zippy acid, crunchy red fruit. Not too polished, still has that rustic Sicilian vibe to it. Infinity glu-glugable

Like cherry juice. Reminciensent of a light pinot. Almost cherry wood too. I had a wine from the Canary islands like this once.

Raspberry jam without the sweetness. Lean and acid drive. A perfect thanksgiving wine

Rusty red fruit with spice and game. Strong floral aromatics and medium bodied.

Very strange profile on this wine. Too floral mixed with a very off finish that seemed almost fizzy. Usually love Frappato but this bottle was not for me
