I’ve just returned from another wine expedition. This time, we explored Sicily and the Aeolian Islands under sail, visited local wineries, tasted wines, and tried to understand what makes Sicilian wine so remarkable. Now I’d love to share my discoveries with you!

Sicily is an extraordinary place. Grapes grow on the slopes of active volcanoes, sea breezes shape the character of the wine, and winemaking traditions go back thousands of years. The Greeks, Romans, Arabs and Spanish all left their mark on the island’s culture—and you can sense that history in the glass, too.

We’ll taste at least six Sicilian wines! 🥂 Sparkling, white, red and dessert wines. Different grape varieties, different terroirs, different characters. We’ll explore wines from two Sicilian wineries: Cantine Fina and Fondo Antico.

We’ll also talk about:
🍇 Which indigenous grape varieties are worth knowing, and why Sicilian wine has long deserved more attention.
🌋 What volcanic soils bring to wine, and how Etna’s vineyards differ from those elsewhere on the island.
🍷 Which Sicilian wines are really worth looking for on shop shelves, and what to look for when choosing.
⛵ How to combine sailing with wine tourism, reach interesting wineries and discover Sicily from a completely different perspective.

And, of course, there’ll be stories from our expedition, fresh impressions, unexpected discoveries, and plenty to share about local culture, people and wine.

To book, send a private message. See you there! Let’s taste Sicily! 🍷🇮🇹
