Donnafugata, Vittoria Frappato DOC (Sicily, Italy) 2017

Feb 12, 2019

By Michael Apstein

 Donnafugata, one of the top producers on that island, makes a floral wine from Frappato, an indigenous Sicilian variety.  Light-bodied, it exudes charm and delicacy, but finishes with an engaging touch of bitterness.  It could easily take a chill in the summer.  It would be an excellent choice for a tomato-based seafood stew.
