Alastro Bianco Planeta

Sicily - 2023

13% ABV

Tasting Notes

The transparent straw colour. Grecanico hides its strength and complex character within this white wine. The blend of Grecanico and Sauvignon gives a nose rich with aromas of citrus, peach, lychees, and white wild flowers plus boxwood. In the mouth, it is vibrant but creamy and silky with hints of white melon

Food Matching

The contrast between savoury and sweetness makes it suitable for matching with simple dishes such as a warm seafood salad as well as with more complex ones like a spicy Asian dish with sweet sour sauce. It can be matched with appetisers of Mediterranean cooking and with vegetarian cookery
