Frappato "CALANICA" DUCA DI SALAPARUTA

This “Calanìca” Frappato from the Sicilian Winery Duca di Salaparuta is produced with 100% Frappato grapes grown in the vineyards located in the central-southern part of the island, on soils of mixed limestone-siliceous composition. At the end of the harvest in the second half of September, the grapes are subjected to cryomaceration in order to favor the extraction of aromas and colors; the fermentation phase is thus carried out in steel vats at a controlled temperature; before being bottled, the wine remains in steel to mature for a few months.
