What To Expect
Embark on a journey of sensory delight, beginning with a tasting of four distinct Etna wines - sparkling, rosé, white and red. These are served alongside a platter of Sicilian street food, offering an authentic taste of the region.Following this tantalising introduction, you'll have the opportunity to explore the urban vineyards and the historic 1790 winery at your own pace. The walk through these vineyards, nestled between Catania and Etna, offers a rare glimpse into the past with its dry-stone buildings and walls from the 19th century.Finally, step back in time as you discover the 18th-century Palmento (traditional Sicilian winery), one of the largest and best preserved in the area. Still equipped with its large chestnut wood barrels and grape pressing machine dating back to 1790, it's a sight to behold. Conclude your day by relaxing in the courtyard or garden, gazing upon the majestic Etna. This truly is an experience that engages all senses, immerses you in history and leaves you with unforgettable memories.
