ARIANNA OCCHIPINTI Terre Siciliane SP68 2018 $28 (90 points)

This bright, medium-bodied red chimes with a mouthwatering tang of salinity, underscoring the well-knit flavors of crushed raspberry and currant fruit, dried thyme and singed orange peel. Light, compact tannins impart a pleasing snappiness to the spiced, lingering finish. Frappato and Nero d'Avola. Drink now through 2025.
