The Wineries in the Etna and Catania area

The best wineries on the slopes of the Etna volcano and in the area of Catania with degustations of local products, wine tastings, visits to cellars and vineyards

Central and eastern Sicily and particularly the area of Catania which includes the macro area of Etna Volcano have successfully produced the oldest DOC of the island, Etna Rosso DOC for decades, obtained from Nerello Mascalase and Nerello Capuccio grapes. The Carricante grape variety, which is used alone for the production of the Etna Bianco DOC, grows exclusively on the hillsides of Etna.
The particular quality of the volcanic soils and the microclimate with wide temperature ranges fix important perfumes in the grape.
Below is a list of the key Wineries of the area that organise food and wine tours as a way to discover the production territories, methods of wine making, ageing in casks, and to taste the local wines and products.
