The Fric by Casebianche is a sparkling wine made from Aglianico grapes processed according to the ancestral method and is characterized by an intense and shiny rosé color, while on the nose it expresses delicate aromas of currants, pomegranate, and raspberries with hints of violet. On the palate, it is dry and smooth, with a delightful and refreshing effervescence, and a fragrant and delicate aromatic finish. Wine made as it once was with artisanal methods, Organic

The Aglianico Rosato Frizzante “Il Fric” from the Casebianche winery is a young and fragrant wine produced in Torchiara, in the province of Salerno, in Campania, in an area bounded by Monte della Stella, the Acquasanta stream, and the sea of Cilento. This label is made from pure Aglianico grapes sourced from the ancient Dellemore vineyard, cultivated using the guyot trellising method on soils rich in clay and limestone. The winery was established in 2000 when Elisabetta and Pasquale began taking care of the family vineyards, carrying out the first experimental vinifications, introducing organic farming methods, and using natural fertilizations to enrich the soil's life.

The Rosato Frizzante “Il Fric” is a vintage sparkling wine produced with carefully selected and hand-picked grapes. Once the bunches reach the winery, they undergo direct pressing, after which the must is divided into two parts, one that undergoes alcoholic fermentation, which occurs spontaneously, with indigenous yeasts, in stainless steel containers, and the other part of fresh must that is used as liqueur de tirage for the sparkling process and subsequent refermentation in the bottle. This sparkling wine does not undergo disgorgement but is offered intact on its natural yeasts as per the ancestral method.

The Rosato “Il Fric” Spumante from Casebianche presents itself with a beautiful vibrant cherry pink color. On the nose, aromas of red berry fruits emerge, including raspberry, wild strawberries, currants, and pomegranate, citrus notes of mandarin, floral hints of rose and jasmine, and a slight touch of spices. On the palate, it is clean, smooth, and fresh, characterized by a creamy foam and a mineral and fruity finish. An Aglianico Spumante Rosato, this one from the Casebianche winery, is certainly unusual yet extremely enjoyable, elegant, and pleasant.
