TASTING NOTES

Among the altitude and lava soils of Etna, the Etna Rosso Euzione 1614 of the Planeta winery was created, a young winery that since 1995 has quickly positioned itself among the most important wine producers in Sicily. ‘1614’ commemorates the date of Mount Etna’s longest eruption, which lasted almost 10 years, with the lava flow stopping right here in the district of Sciaranuova, which can be visited today, including its historic dwellings. The estate is located on the northern slope of Etna. This dark terroir is rich in the remains of diverse lava flows along with ash and organic matter which enrich the soil. The land reaches 800 metres above sea level, giving the wine added freshness and minerality on the palate. Fermentation in stainless steel, resting on the lees for 21 days, racking and ageing in oak barrels for 12 months: these are the secrets behind the vinification of a wine that evolves and impresses over time. A bright red colour accompanied by fragrant notes of hibiscus, currants, and that captivating wild fennel that explodes in character and personality on the palate with firm but respectful tannin and small red fruits that smooth out the imperviousness of a lavish sip. A Nerello Mascalese perfect with red meats, braised, stewed or grilled, in a classic family Sunday lunch Read more Read less
THE WINERY

Planeta

In the heart of Tuscany, a few kilometres away from Florence, lies the Cantina Podere Fortuna and its acres of native crops. This small and important farm stands out among the hills of Mugello, on the southern slope of the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines. This area boasts a very special microclimate, much exploited by the company in the production of Tuscan wines of the highest quality. The Cantina boasts about thirty hectares of land between the Sieve River area and the foothills: this area in particular boasts a cooler climate than other parts of Tuscany, and the vines raised here are cared for with the utmost respect for its unique characteristics. The study of the most innovative techniques, combined with a great awareness of local traditions, has ensured that the winery has established itself as one of the most interesting wineries in the entire region. Among its major productions is monovarietal Pinot Noir. Name and address of producer/distributor: Podere Fortuna - Località S. Giusto a Fortuna, 7, 50038 San Giusto A Fortuna (FI). Products from this winery should be stored in a cool, dry place away from heat sources.
