Our Rosato is a mix of traditional grapes that capture the Sicilian style of Rosato. It's refreshing and full of Mediterranean flavors. The blend of Frappato and Nero d'Avola brings in the playfulness and structure, and a bit of Moscato adds a subtle flowery touch. Perfect for relaxed moments, as an aperitif or combined with seafood. Our Rosato 2023 is unique due to challenges with downy mildew during the 2023 harvest, leading to a shortage of Frappato. Consequently, this year's blend comprises 20% Frappato, 75% Nero D'Avola, and 5% Moscato, resulting in a captivating Rosato with a delightful balance of structure and playful red fruit notes. The higher proportion of Nero D'Avola lends a much deeper color than usual, making for a truly special and intriguing rosé. Even though we find this structure interesting, we will return to the normal ratio of Frappato next year. - Filippo Rizzo, Winemaker.
