From Planeta in Italy’s Sicilia D.O.C., the Rosé 2023 is a refined blend of 50% Nero d’Avola and 50% Syrah supplemented with a small part of Sauvignon Blanc, sourced from vineyards in Menfi on moderately deep, limey soils with mixed yellow and grey chalk at 213-246 meters elevation that impart freshness and structure. Hand-harvested grapes from the balanced 2023 vintage—cultivated organically and per SOStain® protocol with ground cover of beans, vetch, and wild flowers for soil health, and minimal sulfur/copper for plant protection—undergo fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats to enhance purity. This production yields a pearl pink wine with vivid color and approachable harmony.

Tasting Notes A supple, juicy rosé with notes of grapefruit, dried oranges, and mild spices, delivering a medium-bodied palate that's deliciously fruity with a tangy, refreshing finish. The nose reveals small pastries, currants, Sicilian wild strawberries, and deeper hints of plum and pineapple. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and harmonious, with just a hint of acidity, bright fruit, and a clean, lingering freshness.

Awards and Accolades The 2023 Rosé earned 90 points from James Suckling for its medium-bodied, supple, and deliciously fruity profile with a tangy finish.

Serving and Cellaring Serve chilled at 8-10°C without decanting to preserve vibrancy. Ideal as an aperitif or paired with light salads, grilled fish, or poultry. Enjoy now through 2028, during which it will develop subtle honeyed notes.
