Bellissima esperienza

Rate: 4 out of 5 8/1/24
Bellissima location alle pendici dell' Etna,zona ricca di vigneti,ottimi i vini che abbiamo degustato assieme a dei prodotti locali come formaggi e salumi.La ragazza che ci ha accompagnati nel giro delle cantine, molto brava e preparata, è stata proprio una bella esperienza.
Se siete amanti del vino vi trovate in zona fermatevi alle Cantine Tornatore.

We had a great experience at Tornatore. The explanation were interesting, the food pairing was very good (there was a lot of food) and the wine are excellent! However, we were not given a tour of the vineyard. Maybe because there was construction going on. But that’s okay, we were there for the wine!

About Winery and Wines

The Tornatore family has been cultivating grapes and producing wine since 1865 on the northern slopes of Mount Etna. With deep roots in Castiglione di Sicilia, the family has maintained a strong connection to the land for generations. The winery sits at a unique location on Europe's highest active volcano, where the volcanic soil and distinct microclimate create ideal conditions for winemaking. The history of the Tornatore family is intertwined with the territory, making their estate a blend of tradition and innovation.

Tornatore Winery is renowned for producing high-quality wines that express the unique terroir of Mount Etna’s northern slope. The volcanic soil, rich in nutrients, combined with the altitude and the cool climate, results in wines with intense minerality, bright acidity, and remarkable depth. Their portfolio features native grape varieties such as Nerello Mascalese and Carricante, which are skillfully crafted into wines that showcase the elegance and complexity of Etna's vineyards. Each bottle is a tribute to the land and its winemaking traditions.
