Frappato

After more than 20 years from its birth, the Baglio di Pianetto winery is a consolidated reality of Sicilian enology thanks to the passionate entrepreneurial activity of Count Paolo Marzotto and his family. The basic philosophy is the continuous research between tradition and innovation, with meticulous care for the raw material of excellence and respect for nature and the surrounding environment, aware that good wine is born in the vineyard rather than in the cellar. And it is thus that in the countryside of Palermo and in the Val di Noto, in two completely different and in some ways complementary terroirs, about 160 hectares of vines converted to organic are cultivated, which first conquered the Sicilian drinkers and then the rest of the world. The production of Baglio di Pianetto is directed for 50% abroad between the United States, Japan, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, Russia, France, Norway, Czech Republic, Canada and is being consolidated in many other countries, thanks to the most genuine and authentic expression of the land of Sicily.

Frappato Baglio di Pianetto is an organic wine, grown on a vineyard of 5000 plants per hectare, on a medium-textured soil tending to clayey and calcareous, with the espalier method, and harvested manually in September. After a careful selection of the grapes, we proceed with the vinification, de-stemming and pressing them softly. Fermentation takes place in steel silos at controlled temperatures, followed by refinement, again in steel silos, for 14 months and, finally, the wine is left to rest in the bottle for at least 3 months.

The Frappato Baglio di Pianetto has a pale and brilliant ruby ​​red. The nose is fragrant, fresh and bursting, with interesting hints of red fruits, violet flowers, sage, raspberries and blackberries. On the palate it is very lively and fresh, particularly aromatic of red fruits and rosebuds, with a pleasant and persistent dry finish and a medium-structured finish, with delicate tannins.
