Eruzione

The magic of Firriato’s most exclusive labels, from the classic method forged by Etna to the Crus that are born in the Contrade del Vulcano, this experience is designed for all those who share a passion for wine and who wish to treat themselves to a unique experience. This proposal includes a guided wine tasting of 4 Firriato wines paired with local raw materials based dishes made by the Executive Chef Andrea Macca. We will start with a tour of the estate, a walk through the Etna DOC vineyards, including the ancient seventeenth-century Palmento and the discovery of the prefillossera 150 year old vineyard. The tour will end with a visit to the cellar, an example of bio-architecture created within an ancient lava flow. This format combines a guided tasting of a selection of Firriato wines (4 labels) and a complete Lunch, from the starter to the dessert. During the tasting, it will also be possible to taste the Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil, a blend of Cerasuola and Nocellara, a native cultivars of Trapani countryside.
