Description

Planeta is an iconic, family-owned Sicilian winery operating five distinct estates across the island. Established in 1995, it transformed Sicilian viticulture by blending indigenous grapes (like Nero d'Avola and Carricante) with international varieties. Today, it is globally celebrated for its high-quality, sustainable wines and award-winning wine tourism

Santa Cecilia is the top-of-the-range RED from the most important Sicilian variety; Nero d’Avola. The extensive research into finding the ideal place for making a great wine from this variety brought us to Noto, original territory of this variety, where DOC Noto reigns in the extreme south-east of Sicily. With its white lands and its antique vines, it has always been the epicentre of Nero d’Avola cultivation.


Tasting Notes

Aromas of toasted coconut, vanilla bean, and Bing cherry kick off the nose, followed by savory, umami notes of black sesame, black olive, and wild herbs. On the palate, figs, plums, and pomegranates float in a current of warm citrus, while acid tingles your teeth.
- Wine Enthusiast 94pts

The 2022 Nero d'Avola Santa Cecilia opens with wildly exotic aromatics. Crushed blood orange combines with confectioner's spices, rum-soaked cherries and dark chocolate. The palate is round and energetic, with tart wild berry fruit and citrus tones elevated by a core of zesty acidity. Grippy and full of tension, the 2022 tapers off long and gently structured with a pleasantly chewy concentration.

Serving Suggestions

A vin de garde which is not afraid of classic pairings. Red meat, though well matured and marbled; still better with more intense flavours like game, lamb and black pig or even sliced sausage.
