Planeta Chardonnay Didacus 2015 |
Wine Spectator 91 points - A golden-hued white, medium- to full-bodied and fragrant, offering a lovely range of baked apple and persimmon fruit, honeycomb, dried mint and orange rind aromas and flavors. Sleek acidity and a streak of salinity focus the fresh, lingering finish. Chardonnay. Drink now through 2028. 583 cases made, 50 cases imported..April/2020
James Suckling 92 points - This is a very opulent white with mango paste, sticky rice, papaya, vanilla, cloves and smoke. Full body, some acidity and a fruit-forward finish. For this kind of decadent style of chardonnay, the formula has been followed to a tee. Drink in 2020..October/2018
Today Didacus is born, from the first vines which we planted in 1985 on the banks of the Ulmo lake. We dedicate this wine to our founder, Diego Planeta, and it represents the essence of our history. Other than bearing the memory of a symbol, Didacus expresses for us both elegance and tradition, family and the future; it incorporates our vision of wine and Sicily as we have always dreamt of them.
