Terre di Giurfo 2009 Belsito Frappato (Sicilia)
- Online Exclusive
- $18
Frappato is a terrific native grape from the southern-most parts of Sicily that offers the elegance and brightness of a Pinot Noir and the easy approachability of a Beaujolais. It’s a red wine that would pair with fish dishes or a white asparagus risotto.

Terre di Giurfo 2004 Kuntàri Nero d’Avola (Sicilia)
- Best Buy
- $11
Opens with something a bit funky, reminiscent of Band-Aid, but those notes blow off to reveal cherry fruit, toast and tobacco. The tannins are soft. As a whole, it promises to be very food friendly. Imported by Ionia Atlantic.

Terre di Giurfo 2004 Maskarìa Red (Cerasuolo di Vittoria)
- Best Buy
- $10
The cherry and blackberry-driven nose of this attractively ruby-colored wine is offset by Band-Aid or animal notes that disturb an otherwise pretty picture. On the upside is the wine’s crisp mouthfeel. Imported by Ionia Atlantic.

Terre di Giurfo 2009 Uniku 500ml Frappato (Sicilia)
- Online Exclusive
- $26
Frappato is usually made as a dry red wine and Terre di Giurfo is probably the first to release a sweet expression of the grape. This ruby-colored dessert wine offers jammy aromas of strawberry and cassis and could pair with almond or pistachio cookies.
