Planeta

Planeta is one of the foremost wine producers in the whole of Sicily, blending innovative techniques with centuries-old traditions. It was founded in 1995 by the Planeta family, whose roots in agriculture date back to the 1600s – and this move into the world of winemaking has transformed the perception of Sicilian wines on the global stage.

The winery operates across several estates in Sicily, each with distinct terroirs and grape varieties. These estates include Ulmo in Sambuca di Sicilia, Dispensa in Menfi, Dorilli in Vittoria, Buonivini in Noto, and Sciaranuova on Mount Etna, along with Capo Milazzo. This geographical diversity allows Planeta to produce a wide range of wines, from indigenous varieties like Nero d’Avola and Frappato, to international grapes such as Chardonnay and Syrah. Their commitment to sustainability and respect for the environment is clear in their viticultural practices, which include organic farming and renewable energy sources.

Innovation is at the heart of Planeta’s approach. The family has invested in modern winemaking facilities and are constantly exploring new techniques to enhance the quality and character of their wines. Alongside this forward-thinking approach, they maintain a deep respect for Sicilian traditions, ensuring that their wines honour the island’s rich winemaking heritage. Planeta wines are a testament to the family’s passion, innovation, and dedication to quality.

From the Handpicked Wine Box cellars:

With aromas of citrus, white peach and tropical fruit, La Segreta is a Grillo that carries the Sicilian DOC classification. For a special occasion the Planeta Rose Sicilia DOC magnum is a real winner (or for any occasion – we always have some of this in our wine rack!).
