Wood notes | Wine Flavor



Wine with a woody taste often has aromas of oak, cedar or vanilla, because the wine is aged in wooden barrels. This flavor is found in many red wines such as Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot. - Gerardo [TS02/23]



´Custodia´ · Custoza Superiore DOC 2021, Cantina di Custoza, Venetien

Custodia · Custoza Superiore DOC 2021


Cantina di Custoza, Veneto

This high quality Bianco di Custoza Superiore was first created for the 50th anniversary of the winery: quite unlike the rather light-bodied Custoza, the Custodia Superiore (formerly 'Le Noci') is expressive, full-bodied and velvety due to the moderate wood barrel aging. Creamy texture with subtle hints of hazelnuts. - Gerardo [TS02/22]

"Sparkling pale straw yellow. Appealing and intense nose, of juicy peach, pickled orange slices, some acacia honey, flint in the background. Shows good fullness on the palate, finely ripened fruit, juicy." - Falstaff

"Custodia is a blend of Garganega, Trebbiano Toscano, Fernanda and Incrocio Manzoni Bianco, all picked by hand, given a short, cold, pre-fermentation maceration to bring out the aromatics, followed by long ageing on the lees with continous batonnage. Maturation concludes in large oak casks.

It's a complex wine and part of our history too: the history in the glacial origins of our hills with its attractive minerality; the history of the passion for viticulture shown by our growers with its complex aromatic spectrum; and the delicate elaboration that it undergoes in the cellars with its length and long lasting flavours." - Decanter

"...in fragrant lavender, blackberry and plum wrappers, the Primitivo Barone Pazzo offers a friendly, lightly quaffable taste..." - Gambero Rosso

'...In the end, however, the Primitivo came through with a big lead. The wine was particularly pleasing for its harmony and softness, as well as its decidedly long finish. A great wine!" - Il mio vino wine magazine

Molceo · Lugana Riserva DOC 2020

Ottella, Veneto

Lugana Riserva Molceo is vinified from late-harvested Trebbiano di Lugana grapes and then aged for one year in barrique barrels. The color is a clear golden yellow. The aroma is flattering with notes of exotic fruits, flowers and spices. The bouquet is further accented by some vanilla and honey aromas, which become more pronounced as the wine matures. Soft and lively on the palate, with a creamy texture and fine mineral components. Always of fascinating length. - Gerardo [TS02/21]

"Sparkling, intense straw yellow. Opens with notes of almond paste, baked apple and a touch of cinnamon. On the palate good juicy, ripe fruit, salty and deep, finishing with a slight bitter note, but well integrated." - Falstaff

´Didacus´ · Chardonnay Sicilia Menfi DOC 2019, Planeta, Sizilien
Didacus · Chardonnay Sicilia Menfi DOC 2019

Planeta, Sicily

"The back label of the two Didacus wines - the white from Chardonnay, the red from Cabernet Franc - reads: 'This bottle contains our vision of wine. Elegance and tradition. Family and future. Sicily as we have always dreamed of it.' Menfi and its vineyards between the sea and the hills, as a place of choice for growing French varieties - almost a Bolgheri of the South - is a vision that has accompanied the Planeta family since the mid-1980s." - Falstaff

"The 2019 Chardonnay Didacus is a pretty golden color. An exotic mix of crushed yellow apples and hints of peach is complemented by almond extract, vanilla custard and sweet smoke. This is seamlessly silky and nearly oily in feel, communicating undeniable elegance, with confectionery spices mixing with saline-minerals to create a push and pull of tension, as ripe orchard fruits settle upon the senses. The 2019 finishes impossibly long with a perfectly integrated hint of oak that lingers, which is more of an accent than a distraction, as a bitter trace of hazelnut slowly fades. This classy rendition of Didacus ranks among the top Italian Chardonnays that I’ve ever tasted." - Vinous

"The Didacus comes from the Contrada Ulmo from a plot planted in 1985. The fact that today more than 3,000 hectares of vineyards in Sicily are planted with Chardonnay certainly has a lot to do with Diego Planeta." - Weinwirtschaft
