Catania city center: Etna Wine Tasting at Tenute Dei ciclopi
Description
Discover the charm of Catania’s historic center, just steps from the Duomo, with the wine tasting experience. Tenute dei Ciclopi is the only Etna winery that has a tasting room in the center of Catania, a way to enjoy the same experience you would have at a winery on Mount Etna, right in the hearth of Catania. Savor the authenticity of Sicilian wines as you wander through ancient streets, while being carried away by the legends of the Cyclops and the epic journey of Ulysses along these shores. An experience that blends flavors, history, and myth in the heart of Sicily. Let your sommelier guide you through a selection of four DOC wines from the winery: Etna Bianco, Etna Rosato, and two vintages of Etna Rosso. Enjoy a board of typical Sicilian products, including cheeses, cold cuts, bread, and local extra virgin olive oil, while you sip your wines.

I participated in this wine tasting in the center of Catania and, even though I was alone, I immediately felt at ease thanks to the welcome and the relaxed atmosphere. The place is really well-kept, elegant but at the same time very welcoming. The wines offered were of excellent quality and the tasting was interesting and pleasant. An experience that I recommend both to those who are in company and to those who, like me, decide to treat themselves to a special moment alone. I will definitely be back!
If you want to get to terms with Sicily's fine wines, Etnas are your go to. and if you are in Catania, Tenute dei Ciclopi is a great opportunity to taste the product in place, surrounded by the competence and hospitality of the winegrowers. Absolutely recommended, wines are stunning, the city is beautiful and you can also get the chance to visit the surroundings (among which Taormina) once you're there.
