Arianna Occhipinti SP68 Terre Siciliane Nero d'Avola Frappato 2014 (1500ml)

Peter Sultan

Not too much of a chill lets more layers reveal-some brett, black fruited volcanic minerals. Sure, a REAL good pizza wine but can do better. Dressner imports

Eric

Somewhat effervescent. Kind of old barn smell with some awkward fruit. No finish. Pass this one by.

Enjoying less and less each vintage. Probably me.

Caleb Schiff

Whoa. Good reminder to never let a good bottle got to waste. Such a balanced wine and affordable. Fresh fruit, leather, licorice, musk and minerality. One of the best vintages from Arianna.

Lundmark Kvarnstrom

Always a pleaser. Not a big wine, but still a really fine one. Balanced and truly well crafted in every way. And yes, we both have a crush on Arianna, but dont tell anyone.

Peter Sultan

I get the Occipinti love now, this has depth, legs, turns, & beautiful color to boot. Like a cru Morgon or similar meaty beaujo, but w an Italian soul which i dont know to quantify. Perfect foil for a Parmesan baked eggplant meal

Matt

I love this wine. It never gets old and works wonders at the table. Food friendly, easy to drink, balanced, everyone can drink it. Just needs some air to open.

Alex Krause

A bit spritzy from the Brett but still enjoyable enough with sufficient grip and intensity to not be overpowered by barn animals. Still, I long for the unadulterated purity and splashy freshness of her frappato here.

Daniel McGeough

Yum

Benny Riccardi

Animal and funky with gripping tannin on a light lithe frame with cranberry flavor. Magnum bottle
