Discover the true essence of Etna wines. We take you on an exciting journey through the history and wine traditions of our region, strolling through the lush nature surrounding the 18th-century palmento and the underground cellar where our organic and sustainable wines are born.
WINE TASTING
All the wines of the estate. From the ancestral, which we will taste inside the old palmento, to the three wines of the deAetna classic line to savor the essence of the Etna terroir:
- Etna Rosato DOC deAetna
- Etna Bianco DOC deAetna
- Etna Rosso DOC deAetna
The tasting will continue with our finest wines, those of the Contrade line:
- Etna Bianco Superiore Contrada Praino
- Etna Bianco DOC Contrada Blandano
- Etna Rosso DOC Riserva Contrada Blandano
LUNCH
The second tasting is accompanied by a 3-COURSE LUNCH that tells the story of our territory. A true gastronomic journey, with ingredients that best express the Sicilian essence, prepared according to family recipes and our sustainability principles, including seasonality and the availability of products from our garden or trusted local suppliers.
- The STARTER includes one of these typical preparations, based on seasonal products: confit tomato with stracciata; crostino with a slice of Nebrodi pork lard, wildflower or millefiori honey, and pistachio; “piacentino ennese” cheese with tomato jam; pistachio cream with ragusana buffalo stracciata and drops of tomato jam; vegetable tart with seasonal vegetables and parmesan cream.
- The FIRST COURSE also follows the seasons and can be: pasta with Sicilian pesto (basil, cherry tomatoes, almonds, pine nuts, and salted ricotta); pasta with peppers and bread crumble; pasta with eggplant cream, basil, almonds, fresh tomatoes, and parmesan; pumpkin cream with stracciata and bread crumble; broccoli cream with toasted bacon.
- The SECOND COURSE includes Messinese-style bites of veal or pork on a bed of vegetables or legumes and baked potatoes.
The experience is always accompanied by traditional Etna bread seasoned with organic Evo oil from the olive groves surrounding our vineyards and concludes with a coffee served with chocolate brownie.
