James Suckling
Reviewed December 2025A super-focused, polished, light and fresh wine with gentle aromas of wax, black pepper and wild strawberries. A restrained palate with cinnamon flavors, firm chalky tannins, crisp acidity and a chewy finish where the structure finds its balance. (AF)

Decanter
You can feel all of Arianna Occhipinti's tremendous energy and passion in her wines. The 2023 Il Frappato marks the 20th vintage of this landmark wine for the region. A dark cherry fragrance predominates, while the tight and bright palate is wound around a sapid core with gentle phenolic grip, balanced by breezy herbs and a hint of strawberry on the finish. Pure class. Organic. (JB)

Wine Spectator
This elegant red is structured by refined, chalky tannins that are enmeshed in a swath of finely woven flavors, including warmed cherry and raspberry fruit, cinnamon, anise, sweet paprika, dried thyme and iron. Long and fluid, with a fragrant, mouthwatering finish that goes on and on.(AN)
