Planeta La Segreta Rosso (2021)

Founded in 1694, the Planeta family has deep agricultural roots, but it was in the 1990s under Diego Planeta and the younger generation that the winery became a driving force in Sicily’s wine renaissance. Today, Planeta operates across six diverse estates—Ulmo in Sambuca di Sicilia, Dispensa in Menfi, Dorilli in Vittoria, Buonivini in Noto, Sciara Nuova on Mount Etna, and La Baronia in Capo Milazzo—each reflecting the island’s varied terroirs. With vineyards spanning coastal plains, volcanic slopes, and historic towns, Planeta produces wines that highlight both native Sicilian grapes like Nero d’Avola and Carricante, and international varieties such as Chardonnay and Syrah. Guided by sustainability, cultural heritage, and innovation, Planeta has become a symbol of Sicily’s transformation into a world-class wine region.

The 2021 La Segreta Rosso is an intense and vivid ruby red color. On the nose aromas of currants and mulberries with a final spicy and minty note. In the mouth the wine demonstrates its fine personality with flavors of ripe wild fruit, balanced by a full and grassy taste in a very pleasant way. The tannins are soft and well smoothed thus conferring a very versatile character to this wine. The ideal match with Mediterranean pasta dishes, light dishes of meat, vegetables and also fish.

Blend: 50% Nero d’Avola, 25% Merlot, 20% Syrah, 5% Cabernet Franc
