Description

Good to Know

Escape the coastal crowds for an intimate journey into the Madonie mountains. This is not just a wine tasting; it is a private, curated immersion into one of Sicily’s most historic organic estates. As your Travel Designer, I have selected this ancient winery for its commitment to biodiversity and its breathtaking medieval atmosphere. Experience the authentic "Slow Food" rhythm of Sicily, where every glass tells a story of the land and its legacy. Journey to a hidden sanctuary where vines have grown for centuries. Explore the historic cellars and the "biological" vineyards that define the estate’s sustainable philosophy. Enjoy a private, guided tasting of rare organic vintages, perfectly paired with zero-km Sicilian delicacies: artisanal cheeses, estate-grown olives, and traditional breads. Relax as we wind through the scenic Madonie park, with panoramic views that most travelers to Cefalù never see.

Our driver, Marco, was excellent. Grazie mille! He made a special trip to return sunglasses I forgot in the car. The setting of the winery was lovely. However, the experience of the wine tour and meal were disappointing. The wine tour was all of 1/2 hour. The meal was good, not gourmet. The tasting was ok but did not include the sparking wine that was highlighted by the wine tour guide. We had to purchase a bottle to taste adding to the already considerable cost of the experience.

Response from ViatorSeptember 27, 2025

Dear Anita, Thank you for your kind words about Marco — he’s truly one of a kind! We’re sorry to hear the experience didn’t fully meet your expectations, though most guests find the tour to be a highlight of their trip. The wine tasting and meal are designed to reflect authentic Sicilian hospitality — relaxed, high quality, and far from commercial. As for the sparkling wine, it's offered as an optional extra, and many guests enjoy choosing to add it themselves. We encourage future visitors to read other reviews — this experience consistently receives praise for its charm, value, and unforgettable setting. The cost of the tour includes private transportation, driver, pick up and drop off, guided private winery visit, wine tasting and lunch with sommelier. This is the usual cost of all these servises. Best regards, Tamara
