Donna Franca
(Winery in Marsala)

4.77 (43 Reviews)
Provides 5 wine tastings and winery visit from €20.00
Baglio Donna Franca is the heart of the Sicilian vineyards, the symbol of our project to rediscover and valorize our history and culture. The term "Baglio" comes from the Arabic "bahal", which means courtyard, and refers to original architectural expressions articulated around a tower with specific defensive needs. The structure is an oasis of peace amid vast vineyards. Originally owned by the Florio family, the Baglio is now an exclusive wine resort with various types of rooms, a restaurant, a beautiful swimming pool among the vineyards and an impressive cellar. The winery is run by the owner himself, Giacomo Ansaldi, who is not only a renowned oenologist but also a researcher of Sicilian history in winemaking and Sicilian identity. He's the person who takes care of the vineyards used for the production of three organic wines. Baglio Donnafranca's refined cellar is part of the building where bottling and tasting can be experienced in the same environment. This is the "heart" of the Relais, where guests can admire the modern and efficient machinery and the cellar where the oak barrels are kept. The philosophy of the production process is to respect the "terroir" and the intrinsic characteristics of the grapes. The wines are not defined by a specific grape variety, but by the uniqueness of the place where they are grown: the final result of a complex wine experience lived to the full. The Ansaldi winery is a good example of the importance and the long history of the winemaking tradition of the area. Visiting the winery is like traveling through a true museum of wine. Visiting wine lovers can enjoy wine tours to discover the cultural values of the territory, wine tasting of organic wines, including the special Perpetuo wine, participate in Sicilian cooking classes and food pairing.

Fabio Ferracane
(Winery in Marsala)

5 (7 Reviews)
Provides 2 wine tastings and winery visit from €45.00
The story of Fabio Ferracane’s winery is one deeply rooted in tradition and family heritage. Fabio’s journey into the world of wine began in the 1990s, when his father, who had inherited 3 hectares of vineyard from Fabio's grandfather, produced wine solely for family consumption. Fabio’s first experiences in the cellar at the age of 15, helping his father, ignited his passion for winemaking. This passion led him to study oenology and viticulture, gaining valuable experience at various wineries, including some abroad. However, Fabio soon realized that his approach to winemaking was different. Unlike many winemakers who focus on adjusting and modifying wine in the cellar, Fabio's philosophy centers on the vineyard itself. His connection to the land and the vines is at the heart of his winemaking process, making his wines a true expression of the Marsala territory where he lives and works.

Curatolo Arini
(Winery in Marsala)

The history of our family is all about ties. Ties to the previous generations that have bravely walked on the path paved by the founder’s vision; ties to our territory with which we proudly share history and old traditions and finally, ties with all the women and men that for nearly 150 years have contributed with their work and dedication to make all this possible. In particular, our story begins in 1875 when Vito Curatolo Arini decided to build a winery in the middle of his vineyards in Marsala. From the very beginning, the quality of the product, the development towards foreign markets, and the extreme attention to packaging were his focus. Thanks to the collaboration of commercial experts, the founder managed to exploit the potential of his vineyards and started the production of Marsala. In the XIX century, the winery expanded internationally and became one of the first exporting companies in Marsala shipping wines to Europe and the Americas. The numerous goals achieved show our good entrepreneurial skills and the excellent quality of products. In 1896, after Vito's death, the winery was carried on by his successors, who have proudly managed to spread the name of the company and its quality products. Today, our winery continues to produce Marsala following ancient traditions and table wine with indigenous grapes exploiting all the unique characters and flavours of Sicilian terroirs. The success achieved over the years still makes the Curatolo Arini company one of the first wine exporters of the country.

Anabasis
(Winery in Marsala)

While studying archeology Michelangelo Alagna dreamt of something else. He puts his studies on hold to follow his true passion for winemaking. Michelangelo took a degree in enology and started Anabasis after some years of work experience. The 15 hectares of vineyard are located close to the coast in the Marsala region. Only indigenous varieties are cultivated to bring the best out of the region through wine. Michelangelo applies his knowledge of classical studies when creating the company. Naming the company and labels of the wines are indeed Greek inspired. The approach to winemaking is low intervention. None of the wines go through oxidation as it pulls out the fragrance. Katharsis and Pathei Mathos are unfiltered and the rest are light filtered. Michelangelo considers his wine Natural Wine, however not to the extreme. Wines from Sicily are some of the most unique and fragrant in the world. For example, white wines go from being fruity to minerally, showing some salty traits. The terroir combined with the sea and heat shape the wines of Anabasis.

Azienda Agricola Millami
(Winery in Marsala)

La cantina di famiglia rinasce nel 2023 dalle antiche mura della cantina di mio nonno Diego. Lui tra queste stesse mura ha vinificato per più di 40 anni fino alla fine degli anni '90. Cantina con struttura tipica delle campagne Marsalesi, circondata dall'uliveto e dal tipico giardino di famiglia (arance mandarini, fico, fichi d'india, pere locali, melograni..). Non mancano le api e quindi il miele di zagara. Completa il tutto il piccolo laghetto di famiglia e le galline da allevamento all'aperto per la produzione di uova Bio.  The family winery was reborn in 2023 from the ancient walls of my grandfather Diego's cellar. He made wine within these same walls for more than 40 years until the end of the 1990s. A cellar with a structure typical of the Marsala countryside, surrounded by olive groves and the typical family garden (mandarin oranges, figs, prickly pears, local pears, pomegranates...). There is no shortage of bees and hence orange blossom honey. Everything is completed by the family's small pond and free-range hens for the production of organic eggs.
