Planeta Eruzione 1614 Carricante

The name of the Planeta Eruzione 1614 Nerello Carricante includes the year in which Mount Etna began a historic eruption that lasted 10 years, making it the longest ever recorded.

The Planeta Eruzione 1614 Carricante contains a small proportion of Riesling, which gives this straw-yellow white wine more freshness and zest. Its fruity bouquet is reminiscent of citrus fruits and peach. On the palate, mineral notes and a creamy texture then appear.

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.
