Enjoy two refreshing whites, Grillo and Vermentino, followed by a delicate rosé of Nerello Mascalese, a native variety from the volcanic slopes of Mount Etna. The journey concludes with two expressive reds: an elegant Shiraz and Sicily’s signature grape, Nero d’Avola, known for its bold character. Enhance your tasting with complimentary buffet of cheese and charcuterie.

As a special highlight, one fortunate guest will go home with a surprise raffle gift. Sip, savour, and connect with fellow wine lovers as you enjoy perfectly paired bites in a relaxed, social setting.
