I Vigneri di Salvo Foti Etna Vinupetra Red Blend

Freakin’ delicious! Inky iodine so much depth and tannin was perfect with the Sicilian braised lamb with fava beans

Gorgeous!!!! Just gorgeous

Dark volcanic bomb

Pretty tannic should last. 14%. I prefer this over the 2020. Lots of cherry mostly… seems spicy.

Nice bouquet plums. 13.5%. Tons of fruit. A lot of acid and tannins. Very raspberry. Good but i am just not sure how this will age. Seems like a designer wine to me.

クローブ、ホワイトペッパー、ナツメグのような香りが主体。
口に含むと、透明感を維持しながら、それらの香りが口一杯に広がる。
少し時間が経つと紫蘇ジュースっぽさ。

Tannic, berries & volcanic minerals. Pomegranate back note.

From Max Kogod. Tastes almost like a a burgundy. Plum components blackberries and mostly pomegranate. Very sturdy and great even after 18h! in an open glass. Earthy top notch tannins extremely well made. This will last for a long time 10 years+. Pricy 60$.

Salvo (and Simone) Foti's flagship red - Nerello Mascalese/Capuccio, and Alicante (Sicilian for Grenache), and rare varietal Francisis - all from a single vineyard with 100+ year old vines - this wine is still a baby but is already showing enticing red fruits, spice, and a little bit of lava funk that I think will shine through when I revisit around 2020. Thanks Simone!
