Grape

Nero d’Avola, Frappato

Arianna is known for the care and techniques used for growing the Italian native grape varietals of Nero d’ Avola and Frappato. Right from a young age, she was fascinated about vines and winemaking, thanks to frequent visits to her uncle’s wine estate in Sicily. She was just 22 when she started her own wine label. She has been using biodynamic farming techniques in her 10 hectares of vineyards. At her vineyards, Arianna gives complete respect to the earth and uses only organically grown grapes for creating her biodynamic wines. She doesn’t use pesticides, fertilisers, fungicides, herbicides or any other chemical product on her beloved vines.

Beautiful wine with dark fruit – black cherries, red cherries, blackberries and some soft red currants. Great concentration, acidity and intensity. Ripe tannins and a long finish.

Pairs well with meat, risotto and tomato based pasta.

Limited production.
