Calarussa Frappato IGT Package: 6 bottles of 0.75 lt. Calarussa Frappato IGT, a wine with a pronounced aroma, typical of the grape variety of origin. Our Calarussa Frappato IGT pairs well with soft, spicy cheeses, roasted or grilled red meats. The Calarussa Frappato IGT is a typical Sicilian red wine (specifically from Marsala) from Cantine Vinci, produced with a blend of indigenous red grapes, with a fruity flavor and a pronounced aroma. Characteristics: Grape variety: 100% Frappato. Production area: Agro Marsalese. Training system: Espalier with Guyot pruning. Harvest period: September. Vinification: In temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks (16/18°C) with must maceration on the skins for at least 5/7 days. Color: Bright ruby red with violet reflections. Aroma: Intense and pleasant, with pronounced notes of ripe red fruit. Taste: Very fruity, with a light, lively, and refreshing sip. Alcohol content: 12.5% vol. Wood aging: None. Bottle aging: Minimum 1 month. Serving temperature: 16/18 °C. Available bottle size: 750 ml. Pairing: Perfect to accompany main courses based on white meats, roasted or grilled red meats, also ideal with cold cuts and spicy soft cheeses produced in Sicily. History and Curiosities: Close your eyes for a moment and let the wind caress you and the sun warm you. Breathe in the air that surrounds you, full of scents: that of the sea, Mediterranean vegetation, and earth. You cannot be mistaken.... You are in Marsala, the "land of wine". No other Italian city can boast such a varied wine production. It is here that our Calarussa Frappato IGT is produced. With shrewdness and foresight, the English who landed here in the 1700s quickly realized that from the local grapes something very similar to the Spanish and Portuguese fortified wines could be obtained: that wine which later became famous worldwide under the name “Marsala.” In this land so dedicated to viticulture, in 1997 the families of winemakers decided to take over the brand “Cantine Vinci” and thus begin a new adventure that has seen them as the architects of transforming their grapes into wines of constant and unquestionable quality, like our Calarussa Frappato IGT. Transitioning from simple cultivators to winemakers has not been easy, but the experience passed down from father to son for several generations has helped us understand which clusters to select for the best quality wine, the most suitable times for grape collection, and which soils could best enhance the physiological and vegetative-productive properties of the various cultivars. Producing high-quality grapes has thus become the cornerstone from which to start producing wines of excellent quality, as evidenced by our Calarussa Frappato IGT. Over time, wisdom, the desire to learn, and the goal of producing great wines have been recognized and rewarded. Thus today, Cantine Vinci can boast significant recognition for the production of wines that, once tasted, are hard to forget.
