Arianna Occhipinti has crafted a full and intense white wine (made with Albanello and Moscato grapes) that opens with a lively bouquet of honeysuckle, white flower, stone and passion fruits. Beyond the nose, however, the wine opens with a cloudy appearance and closes with some almond bitterness.

Part of a new generation of “vini naturali” from Italy, this Sicilian blend of Nero d’Avola and Frappato opens with small berry and mature fruit tones of dried raspberry and blueberry. It’s a crisp, compact wine with almond characteristics on the close.

The flagship wine from dynamic organic producer Arianna Occhipinti, a sassy, 20-something winemaker who has taken Sicilian wine by storm since her first vintages. It is a must-try for those looking for new tastes in the emerging school of natural wines. It won’t appeal to those with mainstream tastes, but is irresistible to those with an eclectic wine streak.
