Frappato - Arianna Occhipinti
Il Frappato Occhipinti - Arianna's wine par excellence
The Frappato by Arianna Occhipinti tells the territory of Vittoria and reflects the character of a girl who made her dream a unique reality. Like Arianna, in fact, it is a courageous, original and rebellious wine but refined and faithful to its origins and to her land. Juicy and sanguine, it is a red that conquers at the first sip for its freshness, elegance and persistence. Perfect gift to say "I love you".
