Planeta Cometa Sicilia Menfi DOC

The Planeta Cometa Sicilia Menfi DOC, a single varietal Fiano from Sicily, is an exceptional taste experience of remarkable quality. Monica Larner writes in the introduction to Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "Magnificent and luminous in intensity, the 2015 Sicilia Menfi Cometa is the latest edition of this trend-setting white wine from Sicily." She awards 93 points.

The bouquet of the Planeta Cometa Sicilia Menfi DOC is characterized by notes of mandarin, saffron, chamomile, hay and yellow roses. Silky on the palate, with a beautiful mineral note and plenty of spice. There is a pleasant harmony, particularly towards the finish, and notes of ripe apricots and almond blossom are noticeable. This white wine lingers for a long time.

A wonderful white wine that brings together all the expressiveness of Fiano and the art of winemaking for a Planeta.

Enjoy Planeta Cometa Sicilia Menfi DOC with mild or young cheese, white meat or antipasti.
