Santa Tresa

User Rating:

Highly Reviewed
Expert Rating:
4.0
Santa Tresa Rina Russa Frappato is a symbol of Vittoria, near Ragusa, historically known for viticulture. Selected from an experimental vineyard, the wine's grapes thrive in the estate's plains north of the Dirillo River, framed by the Iblei Mountains to the east and the sea to the south and west. Santa Tresa prioritizes organic farming, emphasizing biodiversity and water management. The Frappato vines root in soils ideal for grape maturation, with a red earth layer atop a limestone base, combining loose mineral-rich material with excellent organic quality and water retention. After harvest, the grapes undergo spontaneous fermentation in steel vats with skin maceration. Post-fermentation, the wine ages in concrete, undergoing bâtonnage for several months. This meticulous process results in a vibrant, expressive Frappato with a distinct terroir-driven character, offering a harmonious balance of fruit, minerality, and freshness.
