Baglio Occhipinti in the land of Cerasuolo di Vittoria. Here Sicily shows its truest face. No pretense, no faking. Just - good food, great wine, and people who love what they do.

The Occhipinti family? It’s a whole army of smiling faces! At the helm is Fausta - the hostess who will welcome you with open arms. You’ll meet the rest of the family as you stroll around the area. And there’s somewhere to get lost in! Vineyards, gardens, old buildings. The history of this place is a story about wine - from the year 600 to today. Want to feel like an explorer? Great! You can pick fruit straight from the tree, wander through the vineyards, or have a spontaneous picnic. Just ask Fausta for a basket full of goodies and voilà!

A royal breakfast, in the shade of trees or in the old Palmento - always accompanied by the Sicilian sun. On the table, you'll find real treasures: honey from local beekeepers, fresh fruit from the garden. Oranges, grapefruits, figs - choose what you like! Speaking of the garden, it’s a true hortus conclusus, a traditional Arab garden full of lemons, cedars, pears, pomegranates, plums, and figs.

Sicily. Citrus fruits. Family. Wine. Passion. Food. What more could you want!
