Nicosia Frappato 2024 75cl

Tasting Note

Vibrant, youthful nose of crushed red fruits, redcurrant and wild berries, with hints of earthy spice. Light and refreshing on the palate with juicy red berry and sour cherry characters offset by a burst of fresh acidity and gentle tannins.

Producer

Cantine Nicosia is based at the foot of Etna, on the east coast of Sicily, where Carmelo Nicosia and his two sons, Franceso and Graziano (5th generation), have developed the family business into one of the area's most important wine producers, combining tradition with ultra-modern technology. 

Trecastagni is home to the ancient vineyards of Monte Gorna, with their distinctive lava terraces, and the vineyards have been completely restructured and replanted to focus on the native varieties used for Etna DOC wines: Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio for the red, and Catarratto and Carricante for the whites.
