Explore with us the historic vineyards and the nearby 1700s palmento. Let’s walk together amidst the nature surrounding the vineyards, telling a story of intact and precious biodiversity in front of a landscape stretching from the sea to the smoking volcano cone. You can visit the underground sustainable cellar.
TASTING You can taste our Rasola, the ancestral wine, in the 1700 palmento and then our interpretation of the Etna terroir with a guided tasting of our deAetna classic line wines (organic and sustainable Etna DOC):
The LIGHT LUNCH accompanying the tasting tells you about the territory: the cured meats, cheeses, and other ingredients come from Sicilian producers who share our idea of sustainability.
Explore with us the vineyards immersed in lush Etna vegetation and in the colours of a landscape stretching from the sea to the smoking volcano cone. Let’s walk together amidst the nature surrounding the vineyards, telling a story of intact and precious biodiversity, among pomegranates, lemons, rosemary, olive trees, and wild herbs.
THE 1700S PALMENTO, THE “PISTATURI” STORY AND ANCESTRAL WINE
Let’s reach the nearby 1700s palmento, in the heart of our vineyards. It stands on the edge of an ancient stream, now dry, once used for grape transportation. Here you can listen to the story of local viticulture; among the stone vats where the “pistaturi” once sang, we will taste our Rasola, an ancestral wine produced according to the traditional Etna method, that of our ancestors.
THe sustainable hypogean cellar
Come discover our sustainability story with a visit to the cellar: we built it underground to minimize the impact on the landscape and reduce energy consumption. You will learn how we produce our wines respecting the land and the people who work it. You can explore our small, precious barrel room and the underground geological section, a breathtaking sight: 6 meters of millennia-old layers of volcanic material where the (visible) roots of the vines growing above sink.

Available both in Italian and English.
