What To Expect
This is an exclusive private experience.
The Etna Food & Wine Tour offers our guests the chance to visit 3 vineyards in the area of Mt. Etna, the highest volcano in Europe. This area is very rich in terms of grapes intensity and taste. In this area a couple of local and ancient grapes are cultivated, Nerello Mascalese (red) and Carricante (white). The area is plenty of local and international producers, such as Nicosia, Murgo, Gambino, Torrepalino, Planeta, to mention a few.
We will visit the cellars and the producers will show and tell some secrets (not all!) of this old art. The wine tour of 3 different historical and premium wineries include walk in the vineyards, visit of the cellars, wine tasting with pairing to fresh local food. We will dedicate one afternoon to visit Taormina and one to visit Mt. Etna.
Lodging will be at top-notch exclusive villa resort, in the area of Mt. Etna and Taormina, not far from Etna’s Wines Road. All transport and guides included.
