Winery
Azienda Agricola Arianna Occhipinti is a Sicilian estate near Vittoria. Owner-winemaker Arianna Occhipinti is well-known as a key proponent of the natural wine movement, and has had a meteoric rise to prominence since her first vintage was released in 2006, when she was still only 24 years old.
The estate consists of 22 hectares (54 acres) of vineyards planted to Nero d'Avola and Frappato, and 1.5ha (4 acres) of Albanello and Zibbibo (Muscat of Alexandria). The vineyards are not all certified organic, but are farmed without pesticides, fungicides, herbicides and chemical or synthetic fertilizers.
The winery was constructed in 2012 following the purchase of an old farmhouse with an extra 7ha of vines. It has allowed Occhipinti to move from fermenting and aging the principal red wines in stainless steel and fibreglass to gravity-fed concrete tanks.
Arianna Occhipinti makes this fine elegant red wine from Sicily (Italy) which is aged for six months in concrete tanks and one month in the bottle before it is released. It can be drunk young or kept for six to eight years. It has pleasant notes of violets and cherries on both the nose nose and palate. SP68 from Azienda Agricola Occhipinti is a light-bodied wine, easy to drink on its own or paired with Osso Bucco, risotto, grilled, or lightly roasted meats. Available for deliveries within Metro Manila.
