Valle dell'Acate 2010 Il Frappato (Vittoria)

  1. $22
Il Frappato is a seriously fun wine that would pair with pasta, pizza or even spicy Indian food. It’s a light, crisp red wine (serve it slightly chilled) with bright berry aromas of blueberry and wild strawberry. It’s informal but attractively layered at the same time.  — M.L.  (4/1/2012)

Il Frappato is a light, fruity red wine that is vinified in stainless steel to maintain its lively raspberry and blueberry flavors. It can be served slightly chilled and goes down easily with vegetables, veal or white meat.  — M.L.  (4/1/2012)

  1. $23
If you’ve never tried Frappato (a variety native to Sicily), here is an excellent wine to start with. The ruby-colored grape offers easy (often well-priced) wines that pair well with everyday dinners thanks to the crisp freshness and easy aromas of blueberries, almonds and violets.  — M.L.  (2/1/2009)
