Description
95 points Monica Larner (Wine Advocate): “[$44 list] The Planeta 2019 Sicilia Menfi Chardonnay is a true beauty, and it’s incredible to think that as many as 200,000 bottles were produced at this quality. The wine boasts a slightly old-school personality for oak-aged Chardonnay, but it is remarkably vibrant and quick-footed nonetheless. Instead of overt toast or butter, this wine shows all-Sicilian notes of toasted almond and candied fruit. It offers a medium gold color and a lifted, mid-weight texture. Fresh acidy adds sharpness and focus. The Planeta family is doing wonders with Chardonnay (you might also try the fabulous Didacus), and you can’t beat this price point. Drink: 2021-2035. (Nov 2021)”
