Description

This wine has become the image of the changes in Sicilian wine. It was born from the wish to succeed in competing with the world in producing this noble and widespread grape. After a long journey, Planeta Chardonnay is today an icon for the whole of Sicily. The wines of Ulmo and Maroccoli which produce it are unique in their location and terroir. Fermentation and maturation in French wood, calculated and careful, produce a wine unique in its grace and power.

Vibrant gold in color, this complex and rich chardonnay boasts a beautiful nose of toasted hazelnuts, caramelized pineapple, passion fruit, bartlett pears, allspice, and vanilla. The mouthfeel is savory and multifaceted, with notes of of brioche, pistachios, and concentrated tropical fruit. Structured, fresh, lively and profound, this impeccably balanced chardonnay demonstrates the perfect combination of natural acidity, bright fruit flavors and subtle wood aromas that culminate in a smooth finish.
