Planeta Alastro Bianco 2025

Founded in 1985, Planeta is one of Sicily’s most influential wine producers, known for combining deep respect for the island’s indigenous varieties with modern winemaking expertise. Across six estates spanning Sicily’s diverse landscapes, from Menfi and Capo Milazzo to Mount Etna, Planeta highlights the connection between grape, climate, and terroir. The estate champions native varieties such as Nero d’Avola, Carricante, and Fiano while producing elegant interpretations of international grapes including Chardonnay and Pinot Nero.

Named after a wild Mediterranean herb that grows around Planeta’s vineyards, Alastro is a Sicilian white that highlights freshness, aromatic intensity, and local character. Made primarily from Grecanico with complementary varieties, it reflects the island’s bright coastal influence with a balance of citrus fruit, herbs, and mineral notes.
