Through my new company Sicily Wine & Dine, that I am building up, I received a very nice invitation from Sabatina wine association to participate in their wine event Wine Not? It held place in north Sicily in a romantic small mountain village called Sant’Andrea with over 20 wine producers present. Here I found couple of interesting suppliers in the organic wine field. Also learned about a new wine variety called Faro which is a mix of five local wine grapes.
It was one of the best wine events I’ve been to, very well organized and they kept the food area in another location so one could concentrate on wine only. They even had ice boys walking around to make sure white and brut wines were constantly chilled.

Genom mitt nya f?retag Sicily Wine & Dine, som jag bygger upp, fick jag en mycket trevlig inbjudan fr?n Sabatina vinf?rening att delta i deras vinevenemang Wine Not? Den h?lls p? norra Sicilien i en romantisk liten bergsby som heter Sant’Andrea med ?ver 20 vinproducenter n?rvarande. H?r hittade jag ett par intressanta leverant?rer inom det ekologiska vinf?ltet. L?rde mig ocks? om en ny vinsort som heter Faro som ?r en blandning av fem lokala vindruvor.
Det var en av de b?sta vinevenemang som jag varit p?, mycket v?lorganiserad och de h?ll matomr?det p? en annan plats s? att man bara kunde koncentrera sig p? vin. De hade till och med ispojkar som gick runt f?r att se till att vita och brut vinerna var st?ndigt kylda.
August and September is much about attending wine events in Sicily. The wine harvest starts soon in south Sicily and goes on until end September in some parts of the island. Here on a wine tasting sailing by the coast from Riposto to Taormina, incuding a buffet.
