An Italian restaurant in California’s deep blue Aptos Village might seem like a strange place to meet Trump supporters. But over the indie folk sounds of Fleet Foxes, you can hear whispers that Kamala Harris is the reason the Frappato is $90 a bottle.

Frappato is meant to be served at 57 to 61 degrees Fahrenheit. Cellar temp, not fridge-cold. The 20/20 rule: put it in the fridge 20 to 30 minutes before you pour. Warm Frappato sucks.

This photo made me 😊
But there’s actually a Sicilian #wine that I love to drink with fish: Frappato!
It’s light bodied, with bright acidity, sweet spice, and vibrant red fruit flavors. Its delicate tannins make Frappato especially enjoyable when served slightly chilled.
Great for the holidays!

Dopo la pennichella mi è venuto in mente che poi ieri dimenticai di far sapere ai quei due snobbetti della bottiglia di @ashitaka.eurosky.social e @lucanellarete.bsky.social che mi sono goduto due calici di rosé Etna (frappato mi pare).

A 2022 Frappato from Sicily. Soft and inviting. Much more delicious than first anticipated. Fully balanced bright red fruits, yellow cherry and ripe pomegranate.

Tasted today:
'21 Occhipinti Il Frappato - I can't be objective here because this is my spirit wine, the wine that showed me what wine could be almost 20 years ago, the reason I work in wine today. Perfumed, juicy, joyful, alive. Literally puts a smile on my face.

Put tariffs on the French, fine. But leave Spain and Italy out of it. Daddy needs his frappato and mencia.

Some Frappato producers use carbonic maceration, the same technique behind Beaujolais. Grapes ferment inside their own skins. The result: brighter fruit, lower tannins, more candy-like flavors.

Frappato is genetically related to Sangiovese, the grape in Chianti and Brunello. Two of Italy's most famous grapes, connected by DNA. Italian wine is full of surprises.

Somebody has perfectly grokked the Bay Area Zeitgeist. Mentone began with Rossese on the list; my guess is that tech-bro hipsters from LG were more comfortable with Occhipinti Frappato.
An Italian restaurant in California’s deep blue Aptos Village might seem like a strange place to meet Trump supporters. But over the indie folk sounds of Fleet Foxes, you can hear whispers that Kamala Harris is the reason the Frappato is $90 a bottle.
