From Bulk to Benchmark: How Sicily Became One of the Most Exciting Wine Regions in Italy
Wednesday November 5, 2025 @ 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm
Sicily was once known mainly for high-volume production – but that’s changed.
In this class led by Matt Yaeger of Pinnacle Wine & Liquor, we’ll explore how the island has evolved into a source of distinctive, site-driven wines that rival the best in Italy. We’ll taste through a range of styles and regions, from the structured elegance of Etna’s Nerello Mascalese to the bright, seaside freshness of Grillo and Frappato.
Along the way, we’ll look at the cultural, geographic, and historical forces that shaped this transformation, and why Sicily continues to surprise even the most seasoned wine drinkers.
