Flavour Fresh acidity and excellent persistence, thanks to a slim and balanced texture. The sensations of fruit and salinity return to the palate, together with a pleasant freshness. |
This wine has always been produced exclusively from the vineyards owned by the Planeta family for centuries, cultivated with passion and according to sustainable and organic agriculture criteria. Its first label was graphically related to an ancient 18th-century map of the area, to underline the family’s deep roots and presence on site since ancient times. Today it appears in a totally new and refined look. This time we took inspiration from the theme of Sicilian nature – both inside the bottle and out – drawing from the work of an eminent Sicilian pharmacist, Giuseppe Riggio, who, between the end of the 18th and the beginning of the 19th centuries, created a “erbario picto” with the help of a painter, depicting Sicilian flora with great precision and poetry. The new label offers a collection of herbs, flowers and roots, expression of the hidden and powerful beauty that is revealed only to those who know how to appreciate it. A richness of aromas and taste fully developed in these wines.

Winemaking
the grapes are picked and placed in small trolleys, then refrigerated at about 16-17 °C. Once in the winery they are destalked and pressed, then sent to for soft pressing.The must obtained remains at about 8-9 °C in static sedimentation for 36 hours, then the clear part is decanted and ferments at about 15-16 °C for 10-12 days. At the end of fermentation in
stainless steel tanks of 210/264/600 hl, after about 7 days, the wine is decanted, leaving it on the finest lees with weekly stirring to favour the fixing of aromas and to increase tasting volume; finally it is blended and bottled.
MATURATION: in stainless steel.
