The eruption of 1614 is legendary in the history of Etna, as it lasted ten years, making it the longest recorded eruption of the active volcano to date. A very impressive and fitting name for Planeta's Etna series of equally impressive wines.

Riesling from Etna? Initially an experiment, admittedly. But it can truly be described as successful and great: the latest addition to Planeta's Etna family with a delicate pale colour with green reflections; on the nose with a wide variety of aromas such as white apple, plum, lemon and yellow flowers. Completely dry on the palate, with mild acidity, fine minerality and (especially with increasing maturity) pronounced fruitiness and beguiling depth and length. SUPERIORE.DE

"A fresh and zesty riesling with notes of spiced apples, candied lemons and fresh herbs. It’s medium-bodied with moderate acidity. Round texture with a lively stream of delicious lemons funneling through and onto the flavorful finish." James Suckling
