This comes from a vineyard of century+ old vines of Nerello Mascalese (making up 80% of the blend), Nerello Cappuccio and Grenache (10% of each), although since the vines are so old, there's a distinct possibility that other varieties, whose names are long forgotten, make their way into the blend. They are planted on sandy and stony soils and are bush-trained, as is the custom of the island. Vinupetra is Foti's tête de cuvée, in a way, with its power and concentration. The structure is commanding, and balancing the dark fruit are notes of smoke, salt and herbs.

"Rosy florals and hints of autumnal spice give way to crushed wild strawberries and lavender as the 2022 Etna Rosso Vinupetra blossoms in the glass. It opens with a balanced inner sweetness, casting inner violet tones across the palate atop a core of citrus-laced blackberries. Juicy acidity maintains fantastic energy as the 2022 tapers off long and gently tannic, leaving a tinge of licorice on the finish. Fantastic." — Eric Guido, Vinous
