VinoUS Media Review
Rated 93
The 2021 Santa Cecilia opens with a mentholated freshness, dusty and oral, with a whi of dried violets, black raspberries and sage. It washes across the palate, silky and serene, with cool-toned red and black fruits motivated by hints of sour citrus. A bump of zesty acidity keeps the mouth watering as the 2021 tapers o with a tinge of edgy tannins and a pleasantly bitter crunch. Drinking Window 2024-2030.
Wine Tasting Notes
The Planeta Santa Cecilia Noto Nero d'Avola DOC showcases a dynamic interplay between balsamic, grassy, and various fruity notes. The aromatic profile begins with hints of Mediterranean vegetation and the scent of seaweed found along the shores of Sicily. Sour cherry and ripe blackberry flavors dominate the red fruit category, while bergamot and bitter orange contribute to the citrus notes. Carob flour and incense add a touch of spice to the mix.
When it comes to the palate, the wine impresses with its harmonious blend of ripe fruit and oak tannins. The tannins are dense yet balanced, enhancing the overall structure of the wine and highlighting its intricate and distinctive character. This vin de garde is a versatile choice that can stand up to traditional pairings such as well-aged red meats, game, lamb, and richly flavored sausages.
