The 2009 Planeta Cerasuolo di Vittoria is a lighter and fresher wine. This brings notes of candied fruits, herbs, spice, and anise. The tannins are well rounded and silky on the medium body. The finish is soft and fresh picking up some subtle spicy notes. I think Pinot Noir lovers should take a stab at this if they are looking to try something different and exotic. 60% Nero d'Avola, 40% Frappato. - JD
