Etna Urban winery is a unique wine tourism experience. It is located in a natural spot on Etna surrounded by the expanding city, where we have decided to revive the historical family Etna viticulture.
We are motivated by the love for a 8 generations' family property, and the desire to show that a different use of land is possible and feasible even within city's suburbs, that still retain the character of a typical Etna lava field.
You will visit the vineyards at your own pace through the self guided vineyard trail. Take time to enjoy your walk, stop at viewpoints and learn at the information boards. Immerse in the austere atmosphere of our 1790 historical winery and still largely in its original shape.

What to expect
Your evening begins with a guided walk through our family vineyards, led by a professional sommelier. This isn’t the typical winery tour explaining modern production techniques. Instead, we’ll take you back in time to discover how wine was made on Mount Etna more than 300 years ago, inside a landscape that has remained deeply connected to its history.
As you stroll through the vines, you’ll learn why this urban vineyard is so unique, where traditional dry-stone walls, ancient vines and family stories continue to protect a piece of Etna’s identity for future generations.
Back at our historic 18th-century winery, you’ll enjoy a contemporary dinner created by our resident chef using seasonal local ingredients. Each course is thoughtfully paired with five Etna wines, inviting you to discover the diversity and elegance of our volcanic terroir through food and wine together.
Menu adapts to vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, lactose-free.
Shuttle from/to central Catania available with an extra fee and upon request from April to October
