Tasting profile (AI-generated)
Structure: light-bodied, low tannin, high acidity, dry
A delicate, pale-ruby Frappato from southeastern Sicily with a translucent, almost rosé-like appearance and bright, lifted aromatics of wild strawberry and violet. Crisp acidity and silky, near-absent tannins make it refreshing and easy-drinking, with a clean, fruit-forward finish edged with a faint herbal note. Mortellito is a small, sustainability-focused estate in Vittoria territory that lets Frappato's naturally light, perfumed character shine without heavy intervention.
Serving: Serve at 13–15 °C.
