Planeta is the biggest winary in Sicily and produces some very high quality wines that are very popular within Italy itself. Planeta is a commercial winery whose bottle labeling, advertising, and PR events are very 21st century and attracts a younger kind of drinker. That said, wine experts also praise the vineyards and, for the price, some of the wines are exceptional value and many score highly with the critics gaining 90+ points with Parker and WineSpectator. The wines come from four seperate areas of Sicily. The Buonivini vineyard in Noto produces the Nero d'Avola and Moscato di Noto and has been in operation since 2003. The Ulmo vineyard in Sambuca di Sicilia is the original vineyard of Planeta and from here they produce the Chardonnay and Fiano. The Dispensa vineyard in Menfi is the home of the Planeta family and produces the Merlot, Syrah and Burdese. The Dorilli vineyard in Vittoria is home to the company's Cerasuolo.
