Regular price $35.00 Save $-35.00

Arianna Occhipinti is one of my favorite wine makers in Sicily. She is a maven among mostly men making some of the best wine from the region. At this point she’s an icon. At least that is how I feel. This is a crunchy red fruit wine up front that is a blend of Frappato and Nero d’Avola. The wine is organic and biodynamic and literally has it all with brightness, texture and incredible finesse. The name, SP68 is derived from the highway that runs through her home town of Vittoria where the wine is made. She is unparalleled and at this point one of the most respected wine makers in Sicily. Once you fall in love with this cuvee, track down a bottle of her Il Frappato, it’s a step above and 100% Frappato but totally delicious. 

Serving temp: You can chill this wine down a bit below 65 degrees if you want! Otherwise cellar temp is ideal.
