ADDITIONAL NOTES:
The Frappato "Bell'assai" is a Sicilian red wine which is characterized by the frank and refreshing sip and by the bouquet of fragrant aromas on the nose, where floral notes play the role of the protagonists. A bottle that comes from a great Sicilian vine, the Frappa-to, cultivated by Donnafugata in the parcels located near Vittoria, one of the four areas of the island where the winery's vineyards are concentrated. A label in which lightness and ease of drinking go hand in hand, blending into a classic, round and harmonic structure.
This "Bell'Assai" is a Frappato that comes to life from the Sicilian red grape variety of the same name. An autochthonous that the Donnafugata winery cultivates in the vineyards surrounding Acate, a small town located in south-eastern Sicily, on soils mainly composed of sand. The grapes, carefully selected during the harvest phase to guarantee only the best berries, ferment alcoholicly in steel, macerating on the skins for about 8-9 days. Then follows the refinement, which takes place in steel for 4 months, at the end of which the wine is ready to be bottled and marketed.
The “Bell'Assai” wine is a Frappato characterized by a beautiful bright colour, which recalls the hue of ruby ​​red. The nose is tidy and clean, presenting refreshing notes, in which floral and small red fruit aromas can be traced. On the palate it is light-bodied, drinkable and flowing, with a sip characterized by a subtle tannic texture. An immediately understandable, straightforward red that represents a very valid companion when you don't know which bottle to put on the table: it is in fact very versatile in the kitchen, and combines tastefully with different preparations and recipes, including fish-based ones.
