Description
Planeta is undoubtedly Sicily’s leading wine producer. Founded in 1985, this dynamic winery is responsible for championing both indigenous and international grape varieties and pioneering the development of high-quality wine on the island.
In local dialect Burdese means from Bordeaux and recalls the classic grapes of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc.
A predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon blend with Cabernet Franc, this is Sicily taking its lead from Bordeaux – but the power and dense, rich fruit are very much southern Italy, with flavours of bilberry, preserved cherries, rosemary and cocao that no Bordeaux can claim.
