Product Description
Distant lands come together and complete one another. After his decade of experience in Sicily as Planeta’s oenologist, Florent Dumeau decided to blend two quite different but so very complementary varieties; This wine is all about its bouquet, a combination of fragrances and unusual scents. Wood is used masterfully to enhance the perfumes and prepare this white for happy aging.
