Spumanti Experience
Three Days to Experience
Etna’s Metodo Classico
Spumanti Experience is the immersive journey curated by Spumanti dell’Etna that turns tasting into discovery and territory into destination.
On the slopes of Europe’s highest volcano—among lava soils, extreme altitudes, and heroic viticulture, sparkling wines of extraordinary mineral precision and expressive elegance are born. Here, Metodo Classico is not merely a technique, but a lens through which to read the landscape: it narrates the volcano through gustatory verticality, aromatic tension, and an ability to evolve that makes Etna sparkling wines among the most fascinating on the european scene.
In 2026, Spumanti dell’Etna returns with three days of exclusive experiences among wineries, vineyards, historic palaces, and signature cuisine, guiding enthusiasts and professionals along a sensory and cultural itinerary in the very heart of the territory.
Spumanti Experience offers a structured program alternating:
guided technical tastings
thematic masterclasses
winery visits
vineyard walks
tasting counters
signature gastronomic moments
evening events in iconic locations
networking among producers, trade professionals, and the press
All of this unfolds within a collective narrative intertwining wine, landscape, culture, and hospitality, delivering a complete experience for those who truly wish to understand the soul of the volcano.
Etna is not merely a place: it is an oenological principle in constant evolution. Historic contrade, inimitable microclimates, and millennia-old lava flows shape rare sparkling wines capable of speaking to the world without losing their identity.
Spumanti Experience was created to tell this complexity through vineyards in dialogue with the territory and comparative tastings that frame volcanic style within the international panorama—from Blanc de Noirs to Rosés, all the way to the most vertical interpretations of Metodo Classico.
The event unfolds across three days conceived as chapters in a narrative: from encountering the origins of the territory to the final celebration of etna Metodo Classico at its highest expression.
A progressive journey that draws the audience into the volcano’s complexity, among lava landscapes, historic cellars, new generations of winemakers, and outstanding sparkling interpretations.
Welcomes at local wineries, guided tours, and comparative tastings make it possible to frame volcanic style within an international context, connecting geology, altitude, exposure, and winemaking choices.
The day concludes with convivial moments and thematic tasting counters dedicated to Sicilian whites and the most vertical interpretations of Metodo Classico: an initial glimpse into the mineral tensions and stylistic signatures that make the Volcano unique.
The second day is devoted to in-depth exploration.
Vineyard walks, agronomic insights, and thematic masterclasses guide guests through the many expressions of etna sparkling wine: from sculpted Blanc de Noirs to saline-textured Rosés, up to the most age-worthy cuvées.
In the afternoon and evening, large open tastings, gastronomic light dinners, and direct encounters with producers come to life in some of Etna’s emblematic wineries.
An ongoing dialogue between wine, cuisine, and landscape that captures the full contemporaneity of a territory now in full maturity.
The concluding day takes place within the Baroque setting of Palazzo Biscari, one of Southern Italy’s most fascinating historic residences.
Among frescoed salons and sea-facing terraces, tastings devoted to long ageing, iconic cuvées, and historic verticals take shape, alongside large tasting counters open to both the public and industry professionals.
