The tasting starts with a tour of the farm, starting from the vineyard where, walking among the filars, the visitator will discover the age of the vines and, if he or she is lucky, he or she can join the harvest, a moment in which all the family joins together making festive the hot sicilian harvests. The visit continues in our near fields to explore the local ancient wheats whose cultivation represents the liberation of a population that fought against international politics which forced their productions to a historical low. The visit follows with a stop by our organic garden, with the chance to self harvest the seasonal products which the land offers. The tour around our lands ends with a visit to our chickens sleeping on the trees and the collection of eggs which we will use in the kitchen.

The tasting will take place in Sicilì, our organic shop where, after a little welcome with a sparkling version of our catarratto, we will play with the guests in a journey of food and wine pairings which will see switching between the full line of our artisanal products and the products which the territory offers in that season, such as eggplants caponata, bell peppers with Nubia garlic (Slow Food presi) and mint, our “Perciasacchi” bruschette, a Sicilian ancient grain cultivated many years ago and wisely kept by our family, seasoned with our extra virgin olive oil, organic cherry tomatoes and sea salt of Trapani (Slow Food principal), dry tomatoes made the Sicilian way, beccafico eggplants, cow meatballs with Pizzutello tomato sauce, fresh local ricotta, seasoned olives of our production, baked omelettes with organic eggs and seasonal vegetables, a selection of local cheeses paired with honey of Sicilian black bee (Slow Food principal), purceddo melon of Alcamo (Slow Food principal), prickly pears, tarts of Sicilian citrus and honey pignulata, a typical dessert of our territory.
