About I Vigneri di Salvo Foti Aurora

Roman mythology has exerted a profound influence on our society, from its impact on art and literature to its shaping of language, architectural styles, values, and beliefs, as well as its enduring presence within popular culture and education. Embodied by deities, it unveils a captivating realm of narratives that delve into human nature, authority, ardor, and intrigue. For instance, Aurora is depicted as the deity who ushers in the dawn and heralds the Sun's arrival, bringing with it illumination and the rejuvenation of nature. It is this very name that a delicate and petite butterfly native to Mount Etna in Sicily (Italy) shares. A symbol of elegance and allure, this butterfly, much like the goddess, flutters gently in the early morning light. In tribute to this indigenous species, now facing the threat of extinction, Salvo Foti, one of the preeminent native oenologists of Etna, crafts I Vigneri di Salvo Foti Aurora, a white wine celebrated for its freshness, minerality, and above all, its purity and genuineness.

Born from over thirty years of expertise in Eastern Sicily, I Vigneri di Salvo Foti Aurora is derived from vineyards of the carricante variety with a modest inclusion of minella grapes. These 15-year-old vines are planted in volcanic soil and are cultivated organically, eschewing any chemical products that could harm the environment or the butterflies. In the winery, the whole grapes undergo direct pressing with a static and natural decantation of the must for approximately 30 hours. Fermentation is conducted with indigenous yeasts over a span of 15-20 days, followed by a refinement period in stainless steel tanks for six months. The wine is clarified through natural sedimentation and is only filtered at the time of bottling.

The outcome is I Vigneri di Salvo Foti Aurora, a splendid white wine emanating from the slopes of Etna, which, much like the butterfly, exudes elegance, style, and quality. A tangible testament to Foti's prowess as one of the most distinguished Italian oenologists.

 

2023

I Vigneri di Salvo Foti Aurora 2023 unveils itself in a charming straw yellow hue with glimmering golden highlights that captivate the light. Upon olfaction, it unfurls scents of white peach and an array of tropical fruits, followed by subtle buttery undertones and a crisp citrus zest, complemented by an understated minerality. Upon tasting, its acidity is gentle, bestowing a smooth and agreeable texture. The finish is distinguished by its notable persistence, leaving an aftertaste of fresh herbs and a delicate beeswax aroma.
