For two magical weeks under the Etna skies, ViniMilo returns for its 45th edition, celebrating the volcanic soul of Sicily through its wines, food, traditions—and unforgettable shared moments.

A Celebration of Terroir and Tradition

From September 1 to 14, the charming alleys and piazzas of Milo come alive with stalls, tastings, enotecas, and street‑food corners. The emphasis this year is on pairing Etna DOC wines with Sicily’s rich culinary heritage—an ideal match for our Food & Heritage Experience philosophy .

• Volcanic Wines Evening: Over 100 wine labels—from Etna, other Italian regions, and even abroad—open for free-flow tasting, paired with six gourmet dishes designed to complement the volcanic palate.
• Guided Tastings & Masterclasses: Experts lead immersive sessions, including vertical tastings of Etna Bianco Superiore and Carricante styles, and round‑table discussions on terroir, tradition, and sustainability.
• Food & Wine Pairing: Events featuring Slow Food excellence, local street‑food, and artisanal producers—perfect for sharing the authentic flavors of Etna.
• Cultural Moments: Wine-themed workshops, visits to nearby wineries, live music, local craft stalls, and scenic excursions through Etna’s landscapes round out the festival atmosphere .
