It’s a sparkling red wine from Frappato grapes refermented according to the Martinotti method; the name comes from the direction of the vineyards facing south-west.

Giuseppe Romano is the grower-winemaker at Horus, a small, certified organic
property located in the same 2-3 mile radius around Acate, that is also home to
Vittoria icons like COS and Occhipinti. While he’s far from a household name,
more than a few Italian wine professionals we’ve met feel that Giuseppe is "the
first person to put Frappato on the map” in the US with his work at Valle
dell'Acate and other local growers in decades past. These are still young vines
and a new cellar, but our experience is that the quality is already broadly high,
and the wines seem to get noticeably better and more serious with each new
vintage.
