Tasting and Vineyard Tour Passato e Presente - Sicily

It is time to immerse oneself in the history of Fedegraziani and its wines, beginning with a walk among the rows of the century-old Profumo di Vulcano vineyard: the very first piece that sparked Federico’s Etna adventure. Having taken in the beauty of these surroundings, the journey continues by car from Passopisciaro toward Randazzo.Crossing the expanses of vineyards that trace the northern slope of the volcano, guests reach the Montelaguardia estate: a clos sheltered by woods where vines, olive trees, and a rich variety of fruit trees coexist.Here, gathered around a round lava-stone table, visitors are gently enveloped by history. In the shade of Federico II the 800-year-old olive tree named after the Swabian emperor who was its contemporary begins the tasting of six wines from the winery.Alongside the four expressions of the current vintage, the tasting is enriched by a rare opportunity: the exclusive opening of a historical vintage of Mareneve and one of Profumo di Vulcano.A journey through time granted to a select few, designed to unveil the unexpected longevity, complexity, and profound allure of these volcanic wines.Everything is always accompanied by a tasting of the estate's extra virgin olive oil and bread made from local ancient grains.
