Ciao from Sicily!

I took a few days off work to see my family and enjoy some sunny weather.
And, of course, I am enjoying some great food and wine!

With my sisters and friends we visited a lovely wine bar located in the heart of Catania's most beautiful Baroque street, Via Crociferi. The area is UNESCO Heritage, highly recommended to visit.

Thank you Giovanni, owner of Nelson Sicily, a lovely wine bar and wine shop for the great hospitality and delicious wine 🍷

Giovanni and his wife are the very passionate owners of this deli shop with the most amazing local products to try and get home with you.
And a piccolo wine bar where they serve typical cheeses, bruschetta, charcuterie, olives, dessert, all delicious.

Their collection of Sicilian wines is impressive, the photo shows only half of it! I wish we could try them all! Our pick was a very good one, an elegant rosé made with the iconic Sicilian grape Nerello Mascalese, from a vineyard in the North of Sicily.

Visit Sicily, there is so much to do and see!

P.s. I wish my husband Steven was here, but he is running the business, poor man!
