Planeta Wine & Olive Oil Tasting

Sicily, with its warm climate, hills, sea breezes and sunshine, has all the right ingredients for good wine. According to the legend it was introduced to the island by Dionysius, and has made the island famous over the world. If guests are intrigued to learn about these fine Sicilian wines, a trip to the Planeta vineyards in Sambuca di Sicilia is a must. A mere thirty minutes drive from Verdura, this is Planeta’s first winemaking facility and beautiful ancestral home, located on the Arancio Lake. Guests can taste a selection of their beautiful wines and olive oils and then follow with a traditional Sicilian lunch.

Sciacca's Fish

Today, Sciacca's main industry is still fishing and indeed the Sciacca fleet is amongst the largest in Italy. Sciacca is one of Italy's biggest providers of blue fish. Heading down to the port early in the morning is a real spectable and trying out the delicious restaurants in Sciacca which provide the day's catch is a must.
