Wine Number 20:

2006 Planeta La Segreta Rosso Sicilia IGT

Another interesting wine that fell far short of expectations! In terms of composition, this wine is Nero d’Avola (50%), Merlot (25%), Syrah (20%) and Cabernet Franc (5%). However, for me it was way over-oaked and I simply couldn't get past that aspect of it.

And that's really the end of this tasting note. I tried to get something from this wine, to gain something about the area and the grape but... nothing.

Got another wine off my list... Nero d'Avola. And if I were doing a count of Italian provinces I would have hit another... Sicily... to add to Tuscany, Umbria, Veneto and Abruzzo.

Wine Count: 20; Grape Count: 19.
