Seductively delicious Southern Mediterranean red wine from the ancient Nero d'Avola variety, this wine features a red-purple color with violet hue, black cherries, vanillin oak, nuts and toasted oak nose and rich earthy flavors of dark fruit, black pepper and other spices; this is a "hot-weather" wine typical of the best red wines of Sicily with a silky texture and spicy long finish; enjoy with herb roasted lamb and pork or spicy BBQ meats; established in 1985 and now invested by the Prada Group, Planeta is one of Italy's most dynamic wine producers with award-winning traditional and international style Sicilian wines.
