Top Notes For
Top producer. Nice balance of aroma, taste and after-taste. Has minerality. A lot of pepper and red berries in the beginning, starts to open up with some time, offering you hits of grass and violets. Acidity is good, but tannins are low.

Mar 13th, 2018Red berries prevail in the nose and in the color, good influence of Merlo. Dried tomatoes, steel. No oak, 2 weeks of maceration on grape skin. Good minerality - chalky soils, limestone feels in the nose. 13% abv

Mar 12th, 2018Hint of blackberry and cherries, slightly asidic due to the fruit notes. Stronger smell to the berries, not too grippy.

May 4th, 2016Enjoyed a Planeta Nero D'Avola at a restaurant so when I noticed this is a wine shop at a ridiculous price, picked it up. Nice wine, very easy drinking.
