Planeta Alastro Bianco

Named after a wildflower that blooms around the vineyards of Planeta, Alastro Bianco is a white wine with a Sicilian character — aromatic, full-bodied and pleasantly direct.

Planeta has been cultivating several estates across Sicily since the 1990s and is now one of the island's leading wineries. Alastro is made from 80% Grecanico , an indigenous Sicilian grape variety, complemented by 20% Sauvignon Blanc. This combination unites the island's Mediterranean bounty with aromatic freshness.

On the nose, the wine opens with aromas of white peach and honeydew melon , accompanied by a hint of herbs. On the palate, it is juicy and full-bodied, with a soft texture and creamy mouthfeel – very drinkable and with minimal harshness. The 2019 vintage was awarded 92 points by James Suckling and two glasses by Gambero Rosso.

Serving temperature 10–12 °C. Goes well with grilled sea bass, pasta with mussels or creamy risotto — and equally well with a relaxed evening on the terrace.

The Winery

Planeta

In the meantime, the descendants of the Planeta family have grown up, around the fortress of Ulmo in the southwest of Sicily, where the land has been cultivated for five centuries, the spark jumped over into new ideas and projects for viticulture.

The first vineyard with vines was planted here in 1985. Since then, different generations of brothers and sisters, children and grandchildren have worked side by side.

The perfect understanding is based not only on the harmony of characters and the complementarity of skills, but above all on the unity of vision: the love for this land, the desire to protect it, and the ability to imagine a new way every day to add value to it.
