Description

Organic still white wine, produced by Planeta in Sicily, 2023 vintage. A wine born from the expert vinification of Fiano, a grape variety that best expresses the characteristics of the Sicilian terroir. Delicate aromas of chamomile, hay, mango, and pomelo emerge from notes of broom flowers and thyme. Deep straw yellow with evident green highlights. The mineral palate features vibrant, refreshing and thirst-quenching flavors. The finish offers a silky texture with a refined aftertaste of ripe apricots, almond blossoms, and basil leaves.
