Product Notes

Planeta Etna Rosso D.O.C. is an exquisite Italian wine originating from the renowned wine-growing region of Sicily. This wine exhibits the ethereal elegance of the Nerello Mascalese grape, beautifully blended with a hint of Nerello Cappuccio. It boasts a ruby red colour, with delicate aromas of cherries and raspberries, balanced by undertones of Mediterranean herbs and minerals. The palate is met with an enchanting harmony of fresh red fruit flavours, tantalising tannins, and a lasting, velvety finish. Pair this sublime wine with hearty meat dishes or savour it solo for an enchanting, unforgettable experience. Remember to drink responsibly.

Tasting Notes

Vanilla, sour cherry, wild strawberry, a very clean floral effect.In the mouth substantial but smooth. Very expressive fruit with more complex aromatic elements of undergrowth, myrtle and oriental spices. A wine which unexpectedly transforms into a champion of drinkable red wine with marked savoury flavour and a tasting profile produced by a ferrous touch, rhubarb and very evident black pepper.
