EMW fine wines x Planeta Winery x Osteria Ristorante Italiano Wine Dinner on 11th July 2018 (Wed)

Planeta Winery:

Planeta is a sicilian family – owned winery established in 1995. Alessio, Francesca and Santi Planeta spent years matching the extraordinarily diverse Sicilian soils with both indigenous and international grape varieties. The result? A family of critically – acclaimed wines that demonstrate how brilliance can be attained through thoughtful marriages between grape variety and terroir. With such a quality, they succeed into bringing Sicily to the world. Planeta becomes a “Journey” around Sicily and its greatest wines. The products are innovative, contemporary and thoroughly coherent with a ritual interpretation of wines which have been almost forgotten but are historically a part of Italy.
