Cavanera Etnea - Firriato Winery

The Cavanera Wine Resort is a breathtaking destination located on the slopes of Mount Etna, approximately 600 meters above sea level. Surrounded by the vineyards of Nerello Mascalese, Nerello Cappuccio, Carricante, and Catarratto, it sits in a prime location between the historic towns of Castiglione di Sicilia and Randazzo. This resort combines modern comforts with the natural beauty of the Sicilian landscape, offering a serene escape for guests. Nature is at the heart of the Cavanera Wine Resort, where visitors can take guided walks through the Etna woods or hike to the volcano's summit. The resort features 21 elegantly designed double rooms, each reflecting the vibrant colors of the surrounding environment, blending contemporary style with the charm of Sicily. After a day of activities, relax by the swimming pool with a glass of wine while enjoying views of the volcano craters from our Etna Wine Bar.

At Cavanera, wine enthusiasts can participate in a variety of experiences tailored to enhance their appreciation of Sicilian wines. Enjoy personalized wine tastings, expand your knowledge in our Wine Class, and tour our winery and ancient “palmento.” For those looking for a hands-on experience, join us in the vineyards during the grape harvest. The estate in Contrada Verzella is a testament to the Di Gaetano family's commitment to viticulture, showcasing the essence of terroir, identity, and quality that defines the Firriato winemaking philosophy.
