Occhipinti Il Frappato 2015 (750ML)

94 VM / 92 DE

Bright red. Perfumed red cherry, minerals and fresh flowers on the captivating nose. Then rich and thick, with clean flavors of red berries and candied violet boasting noteworthy inner-mouth perfume. Finishes long and fresh, with a repeating note of violet and a hint of strawberry. This light-bodied, perfumed, lovely red is yet another in a long line of delicious Frappato wines from this producer; it’s a wine that offers a ton of flavor, bright acids and floral lift, but only 13% alcohol. Well done. - Vinous Media

Macerated cherry and plum skins flow nicely against crunchy tannins and bright, mineral acidity. A fine advert for the benefits of the Frappato grape. - Decanter
