Reviews of 2006 Passopisciaro, Franchetti Proprietary Blend
97 points, Robert Parker, Wine Advocate
April 2009
Franchetti hit the bull’s eye with his 2006 Franchetti, which is made from Petit Verdot and Cesanese d’Affile grown on the terraced vineyards of the Guardiola vineyard. The super-ripe personality of the house style is present but in this vintage that quality is kept within the confines of a well-articulated, poised expression that offers plenty of freshness and detail. This is a striking red loaded with sweet spices, cassis, plums and new leather, all of which are woven together with profound elegance. The finish is superb and nearly lasts into the next day. The 2006 Franchetti is one of the greatest wines ever made in Sicily. This is a brilliant achievement. Bravo! Anticipated maturity: 2010-2021.

About the Winery Passopisciaro, Franchetti
Andrea Franchetti of Tenuta di Trinoro is among those who have recognized the unique qualities of the vineyards located on the hills of Mount Etna. These high-altitude vineyards give Franchetti the optimal conditions for gradual ripening and a late harvest that typically stretches in to mid-November, sometimes later. The wines Franchetti makes at his estate Passopisciaro present a fascinating expression of his style and these terroirs
