Description

Frank Cornelissen Susucaru Patos is a vibrant natural wine made from Catarratto grapes farmed organically in Sicily, Southern Italy. On the nose, it offers a complex bouquet of citrus, honey, herbal and floral undertones. The palate is lively and fresh, with bright acidity, a touch of salinity, and a long, mineral-driven finish. Patos is slightly savory, both refreshing and complex.

Producer profile

Frank Cornelissen

Frank Cornelissen is one of the most famous natural winemakers in the world, consistently making sought-after wines in Sicily, near Mount Etna, from Nerello Mascalese and other Sicilian indigenous varieties.

Wine region

Sicily, Italy

Sicily is Italy's biggest island and region. The Strait of Messina (Stretto di Messina) separates it from the mainland. The capital of Sicily is Palermo, a majestically decadent multicultural city offering one of the richest culinary traditions in Italy.

The history and culture of Sicily are a tapestry of fascinating influences. This complexity is beautifully reflected in the diverse architecture of its cities. In Palermo, for instance, one can witness a unique blend of Arab, Greek, Roman, and Spanish influences, not just in the city's layout but also in its food and local language.

Sicily is Italy's third-biggest wine-producing country, behind Veneto and Tuscany. The quality of Sicilian wines has increased steadily in the past 30 years. Some international grape varietals—mainly chardonnay and syrah—have found a place in Sicilian viticulture, which is traditionally dominated by native varietals such as Nero d'Avola, Catarratto, Grillo, and Inzolia.
