Akrille® Wine

Maturation

Frappato grapes, harvested at the end of the second decade of August and collected in crates, undergo subsequent white vinification, with destemming and soft pressing only.
After the preparation of the base wine, a natural refermentation follows in an autoclave at 10°/12° for about 12-20 days. After reaching the desired residual sugar and pressure, the temperature is suddenly lowered to stop the fermentation. After maturing on the yeasts for about 2-3 months, the wine is filtered and bottled.

Tasting notes

With a pale pink color, our Frappato Rosè Brut is a light and irresistible wine.
On the nose it presents floral and aromatic notes, with hints of wild strawberries, cherry and raspberry, balanced by aromas of flowers, Mediterranean herbs and light spices.
On the palate our Frappato is fresh, elegant, with a pleasant acidity that invites the next sip, where spicy and fragrant elements emerge, with a resurgence of red fruits.

Pairing

A perfect wine for aperitifs and for pairing with fish-based appetizers, excellent with shellfish and with a typical cured meat from the Ragusa area.

A serving temperature between 6 and 8 degrees is recommended.
