This Etna wine tour, among our day trips from Messina, is dedicated to those who love wine and want to try the local production.
On our way from Messina to Mount Etna, we will have a first stop in the famous town of Taormina, one of the most relevant tourist destinations in Sicily. After a visit to the historical centre with its monuments and fashion boutiques, we will continue our Etna wine tour discovering one of the typical Sicilian wineries based on the volcanic slopes.
It is not necessary to be a sommelier to fully appreciate a glass of Sicilian wine. We will bring you with us to discover a local winery and meet the winegrower and owner of the estate. He will introduce you to the characteristics of the local grapes, made so special and precious by the volcanic soils and by the great amount of sun to which they are exposed.
After having visited the cellar, it’s up to us to experience the best wine tasting in Sicily and savour the quality of the locally produced Etna Red wine. You can try different kinds of Etna wines accompanied by a good variety of local and tasty Sicilian food: you will see why this is one of our most requested Sicily day tours.
The Taormina & Etna wine tour starts from Messina Cruise Port or from Discover Messina Sicily Travel Agency, located in the city center of Messina where you will be welcomed by your guide. On request, a departure from your accommodation located in Messina area. On our way from Messina to Mount Etna, we are going to have a panoramic tour by bus of the historical monuments of Messina, before taking the highway to Taormina, our first destination.
The first stop of the Taormina & Etna wine tour is the lovely town of Taormina. Here you have the possibility to discover the atmosphere and the historical monuments by yourself or with a guided walking tour in the main street Corso Umberto.
After having explored the beautiful Taormina we will get to the heart of the day tour, reaching a local winery based on the Etna slopes. Here we will meet the kind winegrower and owner of the estate, who will show us the legendary Sicilian hospitality providing the best wine tasting in Sicily! He will introduce us to the wines we will taste and their characteristics. Together we will visit the cellar and we will sip three different types of wine: white, red, and rosé, accompanied by typical local food.
After having enjoyed an important part of the Sicilian culture, the Taormina & Etna wine tour will end at the starting point. We share a goodbye, hoping to meet our guests back in Sicily soon!
