The 2008 Cometa (Fiano) opens with an exotic bouquet of honey, tropical fruit and white truffles. This is a decidedly rich, textured white, yet all of the elements come together beautifully in the glass. Hints of passion fruit and pineapple linger on the finish. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2013.
This is a solid set of wines from Planeta, one of Sicily's better-known estates. As good as the best of these wines can be, they are also very safe. It would be nice to see Planeta take some more chances and make wines with a little more ambition. The raw materials certainly seem to be present to make that happen.
