Service
We taste it at a temperature of 16/18 ° in the tulip chalice. Cos's Frappato is to drink at once, but will express his best in a few years. It is advisable to keep it in a horizontal position in a fresh, damp, dark cellar.
Matches
The Cos Frappato perfectly blends with first courses of tomato sauce, to be tried with broccoli sausage sauce.
Cellar: Cos
Cos was born in the eighties when the three friends Titta Cilia, Giusto Occhipinti and Cirino Strano decided to rent from Giuseppe Cilia, the dad of Titta, the family cellar and the adjacent vineyard. What seemed like a game led them over the years to revolutionize not only the demasion of Cerasuolo di Vittoria but all the wine-growing of the entire Sicily region. The principles of biodynamic viticulture have begun to follow for the cultivation of the vineyard, allowing the vineyards to remain in harmony with the soil, and in the cellar, among the first in Italy, fermentations and refinements in terracotta amphorae, a material that It does not give any flavor and allows to donate wines of great originality. Today, the cultivated hectares are 30 places at 250 m.s.m.m with a north / south exposure on limestone / silica soils and native Sicilian vines such as Avon Black, Zibibbo, Frapapto and Moscato are bred. The wine selection is extensive, but all the wines of Cos are unique, extremely linked to the territory and a personal style and very expressive.
Un biglietto da visita per l'estate
Uno dei frappati più tipici (qualcuno direbbe "identitari") dell'areale di Vittoria. Da fermentazione spontanea, naso di grande espansione floreale-fruttato, come ci si aspetta da un vitigno come il frappato, con sbuffi minerali. Teso e vibrante al palato, con il suo 12,5% d'alcol è un perfetto vino estivo, da servire anche intorno ai 12-13° per piatti di pesce di stile mediterraneo.
