Hailing from the historic Baglio Soria estate in the countryside of Trapani, Firriato's Soria Frappato is a vibrant expression of one of Sicily's most beloved indigenous red grape varieties. The Baglio Soria estate, with its clay-rich soils and exposure to refreshing maritime breezes, provides an ideal microclimate that preserves the grape's signature freshness and aromatic complexity. Frappato has a long history on the island, celebrated for its joyful, red-fruit character and elegant, light-bodied structure. Firriato crafts this wine using modern temperature-controlled fermentation to capture the delicate floral notes of violet and fresh red berries, offering a contemporary tribute to Sicily's ancient winemaking heritage.
