Guided tasting in Tascante Estate
Surrounded by chestnut and oak woods, walking among the vineyards perched the slopes of the highest volcano in Europe, it’s impossible not to perceive the strength and energy of Etna, the “Muntagna” for the locals.
The vineyards, whose roots sink into the centuries-old layers of volcanic soil, tell of an ever-evolving territory, whose change is slow and perpetual. The wines we will taste during this experience are born in this extraordinary context.
To complete the experience we will taste the 5 extra virgin olive oils produced in our 5 Estates, thought and produced with the same passion we give to wine.
