What to expect

Some of the best memories in Sicily are made around a long table. We’ll welcome you to our family’s urban winery, a hidden green oasis between the city of Catania and Mount Etna that has belonged to our family for eight generations.Our lunch is inspired by the traditional Sunday meals that bring Sicilian families together. Dishes are served for sharing, allowing you to taste a variety of local recipes while enjoying four Etna wines that express the unique volcanic character of our territory. Whether you’re travelling alone, as a couple, with friends or with family, you’ll find yourself gathered around one long table where strangers often leave as friends. After lunch, there’s no schedule to follow. You’re invited to explore the vineyards freely, walk among the vines, relax in the gardens or simply enjoy the peaceful atmosphere. Children can continue the adventure with our Treasure Hunt map, searching for hidden stone animals scattered throughout the estate. We look forward to welcoming you. Arrive at 12:45 for registration. Lunch will be served at 13:00 PM sharp. Shuttle from/to central Catania available with an extra fee and upon request from April to October
