Arianna Occhipinti ‘Fossa di Lupo’ Terre Siciliane IGT Contrada 2019

Another historical contrada and backbone of Arinna’s work since 2004. The soils are sandy with shades that go from red to chestnut brown and with a substantial presence of limestone rocks on the surface. After the first 40cm of sand, we arrive at a layer of solid, hard limestone. The vies were planted in albarello: the typical training system with planting distance traditional of the Vittoria area. This contrada faces the Hyblaean Mountains at northeast; from here the wines typically originate as fruity but also austere, presenting great acidity.
