The grape harvest: from picking to pressing

Vineyard Walk, Grape Harvesting, Destemming and Pressing, Must Tasting, Winery Tour, Sicilian Specialties, and Wine Tasting

We invite you to experience the grape harvest in a truly special way, sharing in this joyful tradition. You will have the chance to pick the grapes yourself, try the destemming and pressing process, and taste the freshly squeezed must.

This journey reveals the dedication of winemakers, allowing you to explore the microclimate of these rolling hills. Walking among the rows of the Federico II vineyard, you will collect grapes in traditional wicker baskets, detach the berries from the bunches, and press them using a small wooden press, immersing yourself in this engaging experience that culminates in the tasting of fresh organic grape juice.

At the Baglio courtyard, we will explore traditional farm tools before heading to the winemaking area, where you will learn about the maceration and fermentation process. Passing through the bottling section, we will arrive at the aging room, where red wines mature in barrels and barriques.

In the winery’s tasting room or the garden veranda, we will serve a delicious platter with five Sicilian specialties, complemented by a tasting of two wines that embody the deep connection with the land:

• A versatile, fresh, and savory white wine, characteristic of the hilly terroir
• A bold red wine with a fruity bouquet

We are delighted to welcome you to our Bio Farm, where you will have access to all our green spaces, including:

• The vast lawn
• The small Mediterranean garden dedicated to aromatic plants
• The centuries-old olive tree avenue
• The organic citrus grove
• The animal area

A sensory journey through flavors, traditions, and the soul of Sicilian winemaking! 🍇🍷✨
