The 9 Best Wineries to Visit in Sicily and Sardinia

"Founded in 1983 by Giacomo Rallo and his wife Gabriella Anca, this family-run estate now comprises multiple island properties overseen by the next generation and showcases Sicily’s agricultural diversity. Visitors can choose immersive experiences ranging from the Randazzo 'Brunch Etna'—a walk through centenary volcanic vineyards and a barrel-cellar visit—to Pantelleria tours where vines are grown in shallow pits and guests taste Zibibbo-based wines such as Ben Ryé and Kabir. Seasonal highlights include nighttime 'under the stars' tastings that pair several wines with regional dishes, historic estates in Marsala and Contessa Entellina, and an overall emphasis on sharing local terroir and traditions with wine travelers." - Federico De Cesare Viola
