About the event

'Sicily isn’t an island, it is a continent.' Or so many of the locals and frequent travellers will attest, given its sheer size and diverse topography.

From Mount Etna to Marsala, and surrounding islands like Salina and Pantelleria, there are numerous climates, soils, varieties and wine styles to be explored in Sicily.

There are over 450 producers here, yet only a handful have vineyards and wineries across all parts of the island. Donnafugata is one of them. For this reason, these wines can offer a fascinating insight into the range of styles and varieties in Sicily, all across a high-quality level of production.

Join Victoria Daskal DipWSET, who visited three of Donnafugata's four wine estates last year, as she presents a mini vertical of three distinctive wines to explore. She will talk about the sub-regions, grape varieties and winemaking for each wine, and look at the overall cultural and historical inspiration for these wines.

Each ticket includes a small selection of cheese and charcuterie and a copy of the book The Leopard by Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa.
