A great value wine from Sicily present on restaurant lists across southern Italy, La Segreta is a famously food-friendly red blend that offers light berry, cherry, almond and spice aromas. The easy mouthfeel pairs with pasta, risotto, veal or roast chicken. (4/ 2012)
La Segreta is named for the woods that surround Planeta's vineyard at Ulmo in Sicily. This youthful red is 100% estate-grown from primarily Nero d'Avola grapes, the cornerstone of Sicilian wine. Merlot, Syrah, and Cabernet Franc round out the blend. This bottling has become a staple of value-conscious drinkers of Italian wines with its ruby color and a bright and food-friendly profile. Aromas of cocoa and tobacco complement the wine's red berry and plum fruit with soft and balanced tannins.
