Expo, the IRVO guided tastings

Seven tastings that embrace the varied Sicilian wine panorama. But not only that, each wine will be paired with a dish, always from the gastronomic culture of the island.

These are the evenings scheduled at Expo promoted by the Regional Department for Rural Development and Mediterranean Fisheries and curated by the Regional Institute of Wines and Oils of Sicily. Seven stages, seven guided tastings, which will take place within the Biomediterranean Cluster from 28 to 30 September and from 22 to 25 October. For all the appointments are at 7pm. To these is added an eighth, set for 20 October at 4.30pm, at the A Taste of Italy pavilion of Veronafiere at the Expofatta in collaboration with the Department of Agriculture, Rural Development and Mediterranean fishing. “Seven shades of Nero d'Avola” is the title of this tasting.
