2024 Occhipinti SP68 Rosso, Scicily, Vittoria, Italy

Fresh, perfumed, and lively, SP68 Rosso brings together crushed roses, violets, blackberries, wild berries, smoke, wet stone, herbs, and citrus-rind brightness. The palate is delicate but energetic, with brisk acidity, light floral concentration, tart cranberry-like lift, soft tannins, and a savory, mouthwatering finish.
