DESCRIZIONE

We will pick you up directly from your accommodation to take you on a discovery of the wines of DOC Etna.

In the first stop on our tour, we will stop in Passopisciaro, a small hamlet of Castiglione di Sicilia, at Irene Badalà‘s Winery, a family-run company whose philosophy is that “wine is produced in the vineyard”, thanks to the care that blends ancient and new knowledge.

After a walk through the vineyard’s rows, cultivated with Etna’s native varieties, during which we will discover the ancient rural culture of Etna viticulture, we will taste 3 wines accompanied by local traditional products. 

The second stop of our tour, is Filippo Grasso’s Agricultural Company in Randazzo, a small Etna reality, where viticulturists have been cultivating only native varieties for four generations.

The experience includes a pleasant walk through the vineyards to understand what makes the Etna terroir unique, followed by tasting of EVO oil and Etna wines accompanied by traditional Sicilian gastronomic products. 

For our last stop, we will stay in Randazzo to visit the Primaterra Agricultural Company, whose philosophy is to combine the production of quality wine with respect for nature and local traditions.

After a guided tour of the vineyards, we will be hosted in a tasting room inside the cellar, where we will taste 2 wines accompanied by bruschetta and local products, admiring the surrounding landscape where the view of the vineyards ranges from the top of the volcano to the Alcantara Valley and the Nebrodi Mountains.
