Cometa 2011 - Planeta 750ml x 1 bottle

Winemaker Alessio's desire was to create high-quality white wine from indigenous Southern Italian grape varieties that could stand alongside the world's most renowned white wines. He experimented by planting various grapes in Sicily. The result is a unique wine where the characteristic individuality of the grape variety harmonizes with the Sicilian terroir, offering dense, fruity aromas, excellent structure, and minerality. Today, it stands as one of the most important white wines of Southern Italy.
