Planeta Alastro Bio 2022
Named after a wildflower that grows around the winery, this wine is a blend mainly of Grecanico with a small percentage of a distinctly aromatic variety: Sauvignon Blanc. Splendidly aromatic and delicately structured, with tropical fruit, fresh citrus, and white flower aromas.

Bouquet

The mineral and floral notes are perfectly integrated on the nose, with aromas of cedar, melon, pears and wild white flowers, boxwood.

Flavour

In the mouth, it is vibrant but creamy and silky with a white peach note.

Pairing

The contrast between savoury and sweetness confers a gastronomic strength that makes it suitable for matching with simple dishes such as a warm seafood salad as well as with more complex ones like a spicy Asian dish with sweet sour sauce. It can be matched with appetisers of Mediterranean cooking and with vegetarian cookery.
