Tasting Notes

Vito Lauria is a Sicilian local. After studying winemaking in Friuli, he returned home in 2005 to take over his family's winery in the west of Sicily, renovating the vineyards, focusing on organic viticulture. He focuses on Sicilian indigenous varieties, like Grillo, Catarratto, Fontane Bianche, and Zibibbo for whites, plus Nero d’Avola, Perricone, Nerello Mascalese and Frappato for reds. His 70 hectares of vineyards are spread throughout Alcamo, ranging from 600-1000 meters and on clay and calcareous soils.

Critical Praise

Pouring a glowing amber peach hue, this Frappato rosato is potent and forward with strawberry rhubarb, fragrant orange, herbal thyme and scrubby rosemary on a medium palate, finishing with an astringent bergamot rinse. Alluring and exotically spiced, pour this characterful rosato with misto fritto.
