About this wine
Character
A pale, dry white wine at 12.0% ABV that favours freshness over weight. The blend of three white varieties reveals Salvo Foti's experimental side without departing from the estate's artisanal approach.
Terroir and origin
The wine carries the Sicilian IGT designation and comes from I Vigneri, the growers' association built around Salvo Foti. Their vineyards lie on Mount Etna, in places up to 1200 metres above sea level, on black soils of cooled lava, volcanic ash and sand. Bottling takes place in Randazzo.
Grape variety and vinification
Chenin Blanc contributes vibrant acidity and complexity, Pinot Blanc adds texture, and Savagnin brings spicy, mineral depth. In the cellar, the estate works with a light touch: spontaneous fermentation with wild yeasts, gentle processing in the historic palmento, and ageing in neutral vessels such as used wooden barrels or cement tanks. Salvo Foti rejects any chemical intervention.
On the palate
Pale straw yellow with greenish highlights. On the nose, pear and white peach, along with floral notes, beeswax and herbs. The wine stays slender on the palate: vibrant acidity, fine texture, citrus fruit and ripe stone fruit, followed by a dry finish with a mineral echo.
Food pairings
Grilled fish with herbs, Sicilian antipasti and caponata, pasta alle vongole or fresh goat cheese. Also pairs well with vitello tonnato and insalata di mare.
Special features
I Vigneri preserves alberello training, in which each vine is tended by hand as a free-standing bush, supported only by chestnut stakes from Etna, with no wires, iron posts or concrete pillars. Salvo Foti favours old, often ungrafted vines and small harvest yields.
