Occhipinti il Frappato Grappa

Crafted from thick, fragrant Frappato grape peels, this distinctive grappa is the result of master distiller Giovanni La Fauci’s meticulous expertise at Valdina in Messina. Inspired by the aromatic intensity of the Frappato grape, Arianna Occhipinti’s collaboration highlights the purity and character of Sicilian terroir.

Arianna, a pioneering Sicilian winemaker based in Vittoria, is renowned for her dedication to organic and biodynamic viticulture, working closely with indigenous varieties like Nero d’Avola and Frappato. Her minimal intervention philosophy—eschewing chemical sprays, fertilizers, and additives—lets the true essence of the land shine through. This grappa embodies that ethos, delivering an elegant, vibrant spirit that beautifully mirrors the fragrant complexity of the Frappato grape.
