Experience information
Walk among organic vineyards and citrus groves, stop among Mediterranean plants, rare crops, centuries-old olive groves, visit winery, wine tasting, picnic on the lawn with Sicilian specialties and organic products. Animal area available, aromatic bouquet
.Immersed in generous and lush nature, the Bio farm lends itself to an unforgettable sensory experience.
The tour begins with a walk through the garden of aromas, and together we will retrace the family's vineyards, olive groves and citrus orchards to discover the varieties grown, the characteristics of the soil and the uniqueness of the climate. A few steps from the Federico II vineyard we reach the winery, which is meant to echo the square shape of the typical Sicilian Baglio. Here we will discover together the curiosities of the winemaking, aging and bottling process. The visit to the winery ends in the barrique cellar where the red wines rest for years.
In the vast meadow adjacent to the winery, we will have the opportunity to discover aromatic plants, centuries-old olive trees, flowering arches and tools of farm life. We will prepare an area reserved for you and set up a cozy picnic on the lawn; we will deliver the box with the kit, the five Sicilian specialties including tasty salami, local ricotta cheese, vegetables from our garden, homemade bread with extra virgin olive oil, delicious citrus jellies, organic honey, and water. The experience includes a tasting of two wines from the monovarietal line of your choice of white and red.

Host information
The Bio Fattoria Augustali is in Sicily between the provinces of Trapani and Palermo in the centre of the Gulf of Castellammare in the most fertile part of Bosco Falconeria between Alcamo and Partinico, an area so dear to Frederick II of Swabia.
The family's vineyards and olive groves extend over twelve hectares in the gentle hilly landscape that descends towards the sea, once called the "garden" because it was a fertile and evocative land.
The winery is supervised by oenologist Vincenzo Bambina and his wife Finella, a beekeeper and educational factor; together with them, visitors can share the rhythms, scents and flavours of the Sicilian countryside.
Immersed in the company's vineyards, the winery encapsulates all the company philosophy: respect for the raw material and the surrounding territory. It takes up the square shape of the typical 19th-century Sicilian baglio.
