During this Etna wine tasting you will taste 3 different Etna wines. The tasting will also be accompanied by a lot of various small local snacks such as cured meats, cheeses, olives, bruschetta and olive oil with fresh bread and an omelet for example. (You can indicate your preference).

During the tasting, the different types of wines will be explained in detail. More information is also provided on how the grapes are cultivated, the grape varieties, and the entire fermentation and aging process.

DOC stands for “Denominazione di Origine Controllata.” It is a designation of origin that says more about the quality and content of the bottle of wine.

You will taste 3/4 different wines while enjoying Sicilian appetizers:

  • Scalunera, Etna Bianco DOC
  • Scalunera, Etna Rosato DOC*
  • Cauru, Etna Rosso DOC
  • Scalunera, Etna Rosso DOC

The wine tasting can take place in Italian, German or English. (Italian and German explanations in mother tongue!)

* The Etna Rosato is not always available. So the winetasting is with 3 wines. If the Rosato is available, you will have the change to taste this wine too!

As you walk through the vineyards, across lava rock terraces, you will discover the unique microclimate, volcanic soil and altitude that create extraordinary wines famous throughout the world.
