Capitano nero is the local nickname for Frappato around Vittoria, and Nerocapitano is Filippo Rizzo's straight varietal take on it — pure, perfumed, and built to be served with a chill. The vines are about twenty years old on clay and sand at Lamoresca's isolated estate outside San Michele di Ganzaria, farmed organically alongside olive trees and a prickly pear grove. Fermentation runs about two weeks on the skins with native yeasts and no temperature control, then the wine goes to concrete and fiberglass rather than oak, which keeps the aromatics unsmudged. Rizzo learned his sulfur-free technique working with Frank Cornelissen on Etna, and applies it here with no additions at bottling. Where Etna's Nerello leans structural, this is the airy, gulpable end of Sicilian red — half an hour in the fridge and it is one of the better warm-weather reds going.
