Questo vino

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes grow in the Sciara Nuova vineyards in the Castiglione di Sicilia area, at 870 m. Volcanic soils give the fruit a fresh, mineral character.

Vinification

Harvest begins on 5 October. The grapes are gently pressed, and the juice ferments with yeast in stainless-steel tanks at 15 °C for 20 days.

Ageing

The wine remains on its lees until February before bottling.

Tasting profile

Fresh and mineral.

Label / history

Planeta began this experimental project with Carricante in 2009, when it produced its first wine from the variety.
