SP68 ROSSO - Arianna Occhipinti
Red Wine SP68 - Arianna Occhipinti Winery
SP68 owes its name to the provincial road that peasants already traveled three thousand years ago starting from the countryside with amphorae, and then barrels, and inside the fruit of their work, fatigue, joy, and again the smell of the earth. Young, heady and pulpy, SP68 Rosso is a direct and tasty wine, sometimes rustic but delicate and natural. Excellent to accompany grilled meat with friends.
