Planeta - Etna Bianco (750ml)
Price: $28.99
Planeta Description
The Carricante grapes from Etna always great delicious wines as the combination of black sand and altitude provide distinct aromas and three dimensional flavors. In this vintage, there are notes of white acacia flowers, fresh almonds and mountain peaches. On the palate, the wine is juicy and full of hints of yellow plums and prickly pear.
Perfect with raw fish and fresh fruit, with fish appetizers, and soft cheese. Also a refined aperitif.
James Suckling: 92 Points
I love the herb character here with parsley, sage and thyme, which match very well with the praline and preserved lemons also on offer. The palate shows both green and tropical fruit, but it’s all fleshy and beautifully interwoven with bright acidity, right up to the textured finish. Drink now. Pure carricante
Vinous: 90 Points
Medium dark straw color. Expressive aromas of peach, lime, minerals and white flowers. Offers a bright set of fresh and clean flavors of pomaceous orchard fruit, herbs and anise. Long and lemony on the zingy finish. Carricante shines brightly in this vintage.
