Description

Sorìa Frappato, a fascinating wine from an interpretation of a native ancient vine variety, merges traditional and modern agronomic techniques. This merge refines the angularity of the grapes' dark colour, which expression in the wine glass calls to mind the intense fragrances of the grape skin and seeds. This wine invites you to enjoy the silence, to evoke mysterious far places at sunset.

  • Bottles produced: 4.000.000
  • Hectares: 490
Firriato's strength is that it has been able to interpret, from the very beginning, the ancient Sicilian winemaking tradition in a modern key. Started in 1984 in the Trapani countryside, in Baglio Sorìa, the adventure of Salvatore Gaetano and his wife Vinzia evolved rapidly, taking the company to the top of the island's production quality in just a few years. Today, with more than three decades of experience and their daughter Irene working in the company, the philosophy has not changed and five more have been added to the original estate, creating a unique winemaking heritage with around 470 hectares under vine, no less than 34 labels and a total of 4.5 million bottles produced.

The company, nevertheless, is always projected towards the future and to the enhancement of the territory, in particular, at the moment, it is very focused with its efforts on the Etna area. Read more
