A wine festival in Milo

ViniMilo brings attention to the wines and producers of the Etna area. This page concerns the 2025 edition. For a visit in another year, use the official programme for that edition: an archived timetable does not establish current dates, availability or prices.

Discovering Etna wines

Carricante is a principal white grape of Etna, while Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio feature in its reds. Etna Bianco Superiore comes from the delimited production area within the municipality of Milo, not automatically every vineyard in the municipality. Tasting styles vary with producer, vintage and winemaking; consult the specific event list for the bottles presented.

The 2025 edition in its own dates

The 45th edition ran from 29 August to 14 September 2025. The official archive records tastings and masterclasses. Its Vinobus arrangements belong to that edition; they are not a promise of a permanent service or the same programme in a later year.

Planning the mountain and wine visits separately

Compare the confirmed excursion duration, mountain meeting point and travel time to Milo before reserving an evening event. Our mountain tours do not include a wine tasting or festival transfer. Leave room for changes caused by access restrictions, weather and traffic, and arrange a driver who will not drink.
