Divine Sicily, A Wine, Culinary and Cultural Tour

Swirl Wines of New Orleans and The Farmhouse Table are closing in on the final reservations for their Slow Food inspired Wine, Culinary and Cultural Tour of Sicily.  There are a few spots available for this amazing trip and they are offering current Slow Food members a $300 discount.

Focused on Gambero Rosso, award winning wine producers, the trip will take a small group of people on an extensive tour of the island starting in the exciting Mt. Etna region and finishing in the oldest wine producing regions of the northwest near Trapani.   You’ll be staying at working farms, going on tours and tastings at local vineyards, visiting a cheese and salumi producing family in the east, exploring the beautifully Baroque city of Ragusa, picnicing at the Valley of the Temples on the shores of the Mediterranean, tasting freshly pressed olive oil at the Mandranova and taking farmhouse cooking classes featuring the foods of the region.

The trip is October 11 through the 21.  If you would like to view the itinerary, please go to Divine Sicily Itinerary and contact Beth Ribblett of Swirl Wines at beth@swirlinthecity.com for more information.  Click here to visit the Farmhouse Table website and you can go to Luxist travel website to view their post on this exciting trip by clicking here!
