Frappato
Carolina Marengo
Feudi del Pisciotto
As is the case with the Nero d’Avola variety, Frappato also demonstrates Sicily’s full winemaking potential, able to produce a powerful, persistent and very elegant wine that inspires the audience from its very first olfactory notes, which characterize it in an unmistakable manner. The label is a tribute to the finesse and freshness of Frappato imagined by Carolina Marengo for Feudi de Pisciotto.

Tasting notes &
Pairing
Distinguished by its ruby red colour and a fresh bouquet of red berry fruits and sweet spices. Round on the palate, with a lively acidity, the wine is well balanced and persistent.
Excellent with fresh cheeses and meats. But also with dishes based on particularly tasty fish.
