Today, the mission to cultivate and enhance the Moscato Bianco grape in Siracusa continues with his children, Carmela and Sebastiano, who are also focused on innovation and environmental sustainability.

We had a guided tour and then a tasting at the end of the day. A place full of history, charm and very good wines, all told with passion by the oenologist Laura. We recommend!!

The visit to the Pupillo winery was a wonderful experience. Spectacular location that is perfect for banquets and ceremonies, the owner is kind and helpful and the wines are of great quality. I really appreciated the Ciane, the Damarete and the Solacium. I highly recommend it!

We did the wine tasting experience here in late September 2024. Giulia was our guide for the day and she was fantastic. She showed us around the historic and beautiful grounds and the vineyards. She was incredibly knowledgeable. We then had lunch while doing the wine tasting. They say it’s a light lunch so we also ordered the cheese board. We did not need to do this! The food is four courses and incredibly delicious. All the veg is grown on the land as well. A very enjoyable afternoon and one our highlights from the holiday.

Beautiful 360-degree experience, Giulia, kind and knowledgeable, proved to be an eclectic guide. Visit to the estate, including the castle, botanical garden and vineyard. Followed by a tasting with paired platters of local products. Very high quality products. Absolutely worth it. Thank you for the wonderful experience

We spent a magical couple hours in this beautiful vineyard! The Pupillo family bought the stunning castle & grounds and have converted it to a virtually self-sufficient and environmentally vineyard. The location is beautiful & our charming guide Julia was very knowledgeable and entertaining. An unexpected bonus was free time to explore the beautiful gardens. The giant ficus tree was almost out of a fantasy film! Then the wine tasting with homemade produce was fabulous! The wines were delicious & the accompanying produce added to the experience. We really didn't want leave!

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Our hosts were very informative, warm and welcoming. They gave us a guided tour of the facilities and grounds, located on an ancient site with Greek ruins and buildings dating back to the 1200s. The tour concluded with a lovely wine tasting and charcuterie board, all with home-made ingredients! Highly recommend!
