Cerasuolo di Vittoria Nero d'Avola Frappato 2021

For a big winery, Planeta, in my experience, makes very good wines that reflect their terroir faithfully. This is quite earthy on the nose initially but, with air, bright raspberry/cherry fruit blossoms, along with clean minerality. Zesty and bright on the palate. Great wine for many different kinds of tomatoey pastas and for pizza. — 22 days ago

Etna Bianco Carricante Blend 2021

Blend of blend of 60% Carricante, 25% Catarratto, 10% Grecanico and 5% Minnella, aged in French oak for 10 months. Pale lemon with aromas of stone and citrus fruits adding honeysuckle blossom. On the palate flavors of apple, apricot and lemon citrus with creamy vanilla wrapped in generous acidity, long finish ending with wet stone minerality. Nice! — 2 hours ago

Pietra Marina Etna Bianco Superiore Carricante

First bottle had oxidation and was a touch towards vinegar.

2nd bottle was fresh and gorgeous. Great fruit flavors. Somewhat apricot and floral. Lovely.

Cerasuolo di Vittoria Classico Frappato Nero d'Avola 2020

Way better on day two after opening. A lot of earth and herbs. Plums, cherry, good amount of tannin. I feel like if this was distilled it would be fernet. There’s a lot of herbs and forest greenery, but it still manages to stay light and fruity enough to make it really enjoyable. Looking forward to trying more Sicilian wines. — a month ago
