Frappato, Sicily, Italy
A true rarity from living legend Arianna Occhipinti – a free-spirited grappa, unencumbered by earthly concerns! Made out of the regional speciality Frappato, Arianna works with a master distiller in Valdina, Messina to process the thick-skinned grapes to create this lithe & lifted spirit that brings an aromatic twist to this fine-grained spirit. Clairvoyant and clear with a softly spiced palate of quince, anise, chamomile, peonies, honeysuckle and a touch of ripe blackcurrant. Drink out of a fashionably tiny glass and pair with a fashionably tiny handbag and someone else’s cigarette.
