Excellent. The host is a wonderful conaisseur and beyond the excellent wone snd cheese knowledge she naturally integrated and connected people from France, Sweden, UK, Brazil and Romania; with children altogether. A most wonderful and special experience. Many thanks from all of us. 5 stars and highly recommended. A big hug 😀

If you’re in Sicily for the first time and have no knowledge of Sicilian wines and cheeses, I recommend you take this as soon as possible. You get a nice quick overview of what to look for. The hostess is very charming, adorable and accommodating, so you probably get some good advices of where to go and where not to go in Palermo. Also, her homemade snacks and olive oil were absolutely delicious. This was most probably the best winetasting that we have experienced.

We had one of the most enjoyable experiences of our trip with Patrizia! She was lovely and provided excellent wines, cheeses and homemade pesto for us to try. I highly recommend this event, which she shared with us in her lovely home. Definitely a must-do!
