This isn't just a rosé—it's a volcanic fever dream. Sourced from the highest vineyard on Mount Etna at 1,300 meters, some of the highest in the world. These tiny, terraced parcels on the northern slopes of Mount Etna are surrounded by oak trees and wild herbs. It's a field blend of Grenache plus rare native grapes—Grecanico, Minella Nera, Alicante, and more—vinified with almost zero intervention.

The 2024 is salty, smoky, herbal, and bright—like someone dropped a Provence rosé in a Sicilian pine forest and let the volcano do the rest. It's pale but powerful, light but layered, and totally unlike anything else. Pairs with grilled shrimp, salty cheese, or deep wine nerd conversations. Serve cool—not ice-cold—and let it slowly blow your mind.

"The 2024 Rosato Vinudilice lifts from the glass with a dusty mix of dried rose and spiced melon. This is a mineral and lively effort with white strawberry tones and cooling acidity that adds persistence. Pleasantly chewy and long this leaves a resonance of raspberry sorbet and lingering hints of citrus. 91pts" — Eric Guido, Vinous

More about I Vigneri di Salvo Foti

There are many great winemakers in the world, but none have had as potent an impact—elevating an entire region—as Salvo Foti has had on Mount Etna. Name your favorite Sicilian Wine: Benanti, Vini Biondi, Gulfi, and chances are Salvo had a hand in it.

After 20 years as a consulting oenologist and agrarian advisor he yearned for a project to call his own. He established I Vigneri in 2001, a consortium of producers and growers committed to traditional grape growing. In I Vigneri, he has used his name and skill to help small farmers reach worldwide audiences. Even in this, his personal passion project, bringing an entire community up with him was integral.

To join I Vigneri a grower must farm organically (no spraying beyond copper/sulphur) and work entirely by hand (or with Ciccio the mule). Vines must be trained in the ancient Alberello system (each vine grows as its own little bush) to ensure proper light and air circulation. Re-plantings and new vineyards are at super high density of indigenous varieties and by massale selection only.

The project has meant job security in an entire region, a healthy environment, and Salvo Foti making your incredibly delicious wine. While he makes wine for many people in many styles, his own are made with a secret recipe passed down from his great grandfather "...wine is made with grapes...only with grapes!".
