2024 Arianna Occhipinti "SM - Vino di Contrada" Grillo Terre Siciliane
92
James Suckling
Review Date: 11/2025A restrained yet layered wine with aromas of wax, quince, lemons, chalk and leesy savoriness. Medium-bodied, it shows orange flavors on a savory palate and a tannic grip that’s balanced by weight and lifted acidity. (AF)

Notes
From Eric Guido in Vinous: "From top to bottom, these new releases from Arianna Occhipinti are fantastic. It’s great to see that even as her popularity and fan base have grown over the last 20 years, Occhipinti has stuck to her roots, creating an exciting portfolio of both vintage and terroir-driven wines made through all-natural and organic means. The niece of Giusto Occhipinti of COS, she started her own project at the age of twenty-two with just one hectare of abandoned vines in the commune of Vittoria. The portfolio has grown today, but Occhipinti's artisanal touch in these wines is still apparent. Nearly all are wonderful upon release yet also balanced for the cellar." (06/2023)
