For five centuries and seventeen generations, the Planeta family has been involved in the Sicilian agricultural sector. Their work on the island has contributed to the revitalization of Sicilian winemaking, now one of the most dynamic and sought-after viticultural regions in the world.

All grapes are knowledgeably cultivated in the vineyards owned by Planeta. La Segreta takes its name from the woods which surround the vineyard at Ulmo. This sumptous wine is a blend of Syrah, Nero d'Avola and Merlot. La Segreta is a versatile companion for everyday drinking and appropriate for many different occasions. It is the perfect approach to Sicilian wine, with its excellent relationship between quality and price, guaranteed by the Planeta family’s patient input, from vine to wine.

Tasting Notes

An intensely vivid ruby colour. On the nose aromas of redcurrant and mulberry with a slightly spicy and minty finish. In the mouth the wine demonstrates its fine personality with flavours of ripe wild fruits, balanced by a very pleasant full and herbal taste. The tannins are soft and smooth conferring a very versatile character to this red wine.

Food Pairing

For daily drinking, it is ideal with Mediterranean pasta dishes and light meals of meat, vegetables or oily fish.
