Etna Bianco DOC 2019 Planeta

Etna Bianco di Planeta comes from the Montelaguardia vineyard, located in the municipality of Castiglione di Sicilia, in the province of Catania.

It is made from only Carricante grapes, harvested in boxes in the first two weeks of October and subjected to careful selection on arrival in the cellar. After a soft pressing of the bunches and the decanting of the must, the fermentation takes place mainly in stainless steel at a controlled temperature of 15 ° C and the remaining part in Allier oak tonneaux. The wine ages in the same containers on the fine lees until the end of March.

It is pale yellow in color. The nose is multifaceted and delicate, lingering on notes of white acacia flowers, fresh almonds and mountain peaches. The taste is voluminous, rich in juice and fruity hints reminiscent of yellow plums and prickly pears.

This white is excellent in combination with first courses and fish carpaccio. However, it does not disdain fresh cheeses and fresh fruit. Ideal as an aperitif.
