Planeta Sito dell'Ulmo Merlot

Planeta Sito dell'Ulmo is made from Merlot grapes grown in the area near Ulmo that has proven to be the most suitable for Merlot vines – a location not far from Lake Arancio. In the glass, it displays an intense garnet red color. Its bouquet is intense, reminiscent of currants, blackberries, and other dark fruits. These are complemented by hints of mint and chocolate, and perhaps a touch of sage and bay leaf. On the palate, pronounced tannins and traces of oak are evident. The finish is long and subtly spicy.

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.
