Beneath the first layer of sand emerges a harder level of rocky limestone, an element that helps define the wine's natural tension. The bush-trained vineyard, set up according to the typical planting pattern of the Vittoria area, reflects a rooted agricultural tradition consistent with the territory. The northeast exposure, towards the Iblei Mountains, favors a profile that combines fruit, austerity, and freshness, with a direct yet refined style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrappato \"FL\" Fossa di Lupo Arianna Occhipinti 2019\u003c\/strong\u003e presents itself with an agile and vibrant profile, in line with the character of the grape variety.
