Description
Frappato Tenute Orestiadi is a wine produced with Frappato grapes grown in the Belice Valley area in Sicily, in the municipality of Gibellina in Sicily. The vineyards where Nero d'Avola is cultivated have volcanic origin soils which, together with favorable climatic conditions, allow the grapes to reach a perfect state of ripeness every year.
