I Vigneri di Salvo Foti - Vinudilice Rosato, 2017


Vinudilice Rosato is made from the centenary vines of Vigna Bosco, the highest vineyard in the Etna region (and probably of all Italy), lying at 1200 meters above sea level.
This rosé is a field blend. The different grapes (coming from 10 varieties, both white and black-skinned) are harvested and vinified altogether. After fermentation, the wine matures for 5 months in stainless steel vats.
In the glass, this wine has a pale light pink hue. On the nose, it has a medium+ intensity of flavours. Vinudilice Rosato is delicate and nuanced, mixing red fruit aromas such as strawberry, redcurrant and rhubarb with pink grapefruit and white flower nuances. A touch of bread dough adds complexity.
On the palate, it’s light to medium in body. The wine possesses a bright high acidity and a crunchy and lively character. Ethereal and classy, Vinudilice starts with red fruit notes mixed with primrose and red geranium. Sage, nettle and bread pastry suggestions in the mid-palate, progress into a classy dry finish. A serious rosé.
