Inspired by a pink Sicilian sunset, this wine has a light & attractive nose with notes of rose petals, pomegranate & strawberries. On the palate, the wine is silky smooth, light & fresh with no angularity & a beautiful finish. This wine has few limits: excellent as an aperitif, with light pasta dishes or even with fruit, fillet of grouper with tomatoes, spaghetti alla Norma, warm octopus & potato salad, pasta with fresh tuna & courgettes, sea-food, oysters, raw sword fish & sushi, salami made with black Nebrodi pork, fresh hard tuma cheese. The Syrah grapes come from the Planeta family's Dispensa winery & are harvested slightly earlier than usual. The grapes are destemmed & soft crushed after 4-5 hours of maceration in the press; the juice is clarified through cold settling overnight & then inoculated with selected pure yeast. Fermentation & ageing in stainless steel vessels. ...

A very spicy & fruity wine, brilliant & clear, perfumed with carob, bergamot, incense & orange peel. The compact ripe fruit & balsamic notes on the palate dissolve in a sweet & vigorous manner to accompany tannins of dense texture but also open & calibrated to the structure of this wine of deep baritone tones. Traces of graphite confer elements of a high tasting lineage while cleverly elicited wild blackberry & black cherry maintains the wine on a register of rigorous style & taste. A wine which has no fear of the riskiest matchings such as pork marinated with chilli pepper or dishes of fish with rich fibrous flesh. ...
