Other Info:

Baglio di Pianetto has two very separate areas of operations. One is located in Santa Cristina Gela, a few kilometres from Palermo, in NW Sicily and the other is the very South Eastern tip of the island around Noto. It is here that the indigenous and ebullient Frappato wine is produced. To optimised the fresh fruit characteristics fermentation occurs in steel tanks at a controlled temperature followed by traditional pigeage and pump-over. It is kept for a
further 14 months in steel tanks followed by a further 3 months in bottle. The estate gained organic status in 2013.

Sicily's table wine! A wonderful, lively wine full of red berry fruits, ripe fig, a little white smoke mineral-esque character, subtle spice and herbaceous notes and a succulent, dry finish. Leaves you wanting another glass!
