Planeta Sito dell'Ulmo Merlot

The Planeta Sito dell’Ulmo is obtained from Merlot grapes that grow at the site near Ulmo, which has proven to be the most suitable for Merlot vines - a place not far from Lake Arancio.

In the glass, it shows an intense garnet red. Its bouquet is intense and reminiscent of currants, blackberries, and other dark fruits. Added to this is some mint and chocolate and perhaps a hint of sage and bay leaf. On the palate, concise tannins and traces of the use of wood appear. The aftertaste is long and finely spiced.

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.
