Italy - Sicily

Sicily
The largest island in the Mediterranean is also the largest region in Italy with a land area of 25,703 km². In the 8th century B.C. The Greeks founded their first colonies in the 4th century BC and brought their vines and viticulture with them to the island. Viticulture takes place at altitudes of up to 900 meters on around 119,000 hectares, mainly in the west and southeast. This makes Sicily by far the largest wine-growing region in Italy.

However, due to the intense sunlight on the slopes and large temperature fluctuations between day and night, there are very good conditions for viticulture.

Planeta Alastro Sicilia Menfi
NEW
The eye: Intense straw yellow with barely a hint of greenish reflections.
The nose: Notes of white, ripe melons and white peach from Mount Etna, followed by sweet hints almost like white chocolate and meringues, as well as a mineral component.
The palate: Fine, not too voluminous, but full and unexpectedly soft with a nice acidity that underlines the freshness and a dense, floral note on the finish.
