Decanter, 94 Points
"Fosso di Lupo's soils are composed of brown sand and compact limestone. It's an aromatic, breezy Frappato with herbal-edged bramble fruits and tight, grippy frame segueing into succulent pomegranate and blood orange."
Vinous, 94 Points
"The 2022 Frappato Fosso di Lupo (Fl) opens with wild aromatics, mixing blood orange and peach with mint leaf and white smoke. Wonderfully complete, it coasts across the palate with grace, displaying silky textures and vibrant red and blue berry fruits. A gentle tug of fine tannins and a lifting hint of tangerine appear as the 2022 tapers off with floral resonance."
Winemaker Notes:
"Fossa di Lupo: historic district, backbone of my work since 2004. The sapling vineyard has a planting layout typical of the Vittoria area. The district faces the Iblei Mountains to the north-east; from here fruity but also austere wines with good acidity usually derive."
Alcohol: 12%
