Olive Oil Estates & Wineries
 

My husband and I would like to tour an olive oil estate and a winery while in Sicily next spring. Can anyone suggest either in the Agrigento or Taormina region?

Thanks!

What does ttt mean?

It means "to the top". It brings your thread to the top of the list of posts in the left column(as any response does) so others might see it and have answers for you.

Thank you! I'm new to this; still learning :-)

Will you be going in November, which is olive harvest time? That's the best time to see the pressing process.

Closer to Taormina than Regaleali is to Agrigento is this estate on the slopes of Mt. Etna that produces both wine and olive oil:

It's only in Italian, but it says that they are happy to receive visitors. One is asked to provide the number of visitors, the day and the time of arrival. The email address is [email protected].

I'm fairly sure the owner speaks English; he's a count, and the Sicilian aristocracy are pretty well educated these days.

Sorry: Closer to Taormina than *Tasca d'Almerita* is to Agrigento...

Thank you so much for all this information! I will look into these estates!
