Sicilian Wines And Cheeses Tasting In Palermo

This whole experience was lovely and informative. Patricia was a gracious and entertaining host; her apartment was lovely and provided a terrific setting for our Sicilian wine and cheese tasting and education. We had a delightful time and would recommend this experience to anyone.

Fantastic wines, fantastic cheeses, and fantastic learning experience. I enjoyed the experience. It was the comfort of home and a great discussion of wine, cheese, and the topics of our world. I recommend!

This was an extraordinary and lovely experience. Patrizia was warm and welcoming and very knowledgeable about wine, cheese, olive oil and Sicily. Her home was beautiful and it would be silly not to do this experience at least once.

Patrizia is amazing! Told us so much about Sicilian wines. We tasted about 10 wines and lots of cheese!! Lots of fun!

Really fun tasting, six different wines to try which we just about managed to all taste. The tasting was made by the lovely company who joined my wife and I, Steve and Sherry from the US who were an absolute scream. Along with Patrizia and her nibbles and stories the time absolutely flew by. A really good experience that we would not have missed

It was absolutely amazing from start to finish. The wines were amazing as was the cheese the hostess is so knowledgeable, so friendly, and so helpful. My only mistake was I didn't book the lunch after the wine tasting. And it's more than a wine tasting. You get a full glass of each wine we had six wines. She explains where they're from. She even has the olive oil that she makes at the the tasting table. I learn more at this wine tasting than any other wine tasting I've done anywhere in the world. Her apartment is filled with artwork a beautiful view I can't say enough about how amazing it was. It was actually the high point of my entire trip.

We were really looking forward to doing wine and cheese tasting in Sicily, especially as it was to celebrate a birthday. Unfortunately, the experience wasn’t as expected. It didn’t feel worth the money that we spent (£250 plus booking fee). The experience felt a bit awkward. We were served food which had been cooked by the two other guests in attendance and, although it was lovely, we were only anticipating wine and cheese tasting so we felt obligated to eat a meal. The cheese was not paired with the wines and there was not a lot of wine on offer for the amount paid. We also thought it would be held in a public place, as opposed to someone’s apartment. Just a bit of an unusual experience and not what we expected.

Patrizia welcomed us into her home (which is beautiful) and shared her knowledge of Sicilian wines while we snacked on an abundance of cheeses and home-cooked bites. We had a lot of caponata on our trip and Patrizia's was by far our favorite. Patrizia makes you feel like you are a dear friend lucky to snag an invite to one of her parties.

I booked this experience very late and was a bit apprehensive when Patrizia asked if I could reschedule. I couldn't and she graciously accommodated me. I ended ip in a one-on-one wine and cheese (and other goodies) tasting afternoon with her on her lovely terrace just opposite the Cathedral. It was a wonderful experience and I highly recommend it! She introduced me to Sicilian wine and cheese, and we chatted on numerous topics ... the time just flew by! And she was very helpful in getting me a cab back when I couldn't find one :) I would do this again if/when (fingers crossed) I go back to Palermo!

Fantastic experience tasting Sicilian wine and cheese and other delicacies. From the minute you entered Patrizia’s home you were welcomed and felt like family.

We had an unforgettable experience with Patrizia during the Sicilian Wines and Cheeses Tasting in Palermo. From the moment we stepped into her beautiful 17th-century home, we were enveloped by its charming ambiance and historical significance, setting the perfect scene for our culinary journey. Patrizia’s expertise and passion for Sicilian wine and cheese were evident throughout the evening. She masterfully guided us through six exquisite wines, each thoughtfully paired with regional artisan cheeses that perfectly complemented the flavors. Her deep knowledge of the island’s wine appellations and traditional cheese-making processes added an educational layer that enhanced our appreciation for each tasting. Beyond her expertise, Patrizia’s warm hospitality made us feel truly welcomed. She created an intimate and relaxed atmosphere that allowed us to fully savor each sip and bite while engaging in meaningful conversations about Sicilian culture and traditions. This experience was not just about tasting incredible wines and cheeses; it was about immersing ourselves in the rich culinary heritage of Sicily, beautifully narrated by someone who clearly loves sharing her culture with others. We wholeheartedly recommend this tasting experience with Patrizia to anyone visiting Palermo. It was undoubtedly one of the highlights of our trip. Thank you, Patrizia, for an unforgettable afternoon, we can’t wait to return!

What an amazing evening with Patrizia. She is an amazing host with a beautiful home that makes you feel right at home. The food, wine and cheese is absolutely outstanding. Sicily and Patrizia know these things well. Will book more evenings with Patrizia!

The experience was really authentic! We were in this women’s home and she told us about the different wines and cheeses we were eating! She is also a very good cook and gave us samples of her homemade caponata, pesto, olive oil and cassata pie. All were absolutely amazing!!! Great local experience!!!

Patrizia welcomes us into her home for wine and cheese and other delicacies. This is very relaxed and friendly, like visiting a good friend. Learn about Sicilian wine and cheeses. Only the three of us in her lovely home. Very high quality experience.

Host was accommodating, knowledgeable, intelligent, great personality. Home was beautiful. Very clean. Felt like family

we had a wonderful time tasting wine and cheese with Patrizia! She was so welcoming and did a great job of hosting and explaining wines. It was fun to be inside someone’s home in Palermo— beautiful apartment!

My wife and I had a fantastic wine and cheese tasting experience with the fantastic host, Patrizia. She has a lovely home across from the Cathedral so not only do you get a great food experience you also are in a beautiful area of Palermo. The three white and three red Sicilian wines along with local cheese’s were fantastic. And to make it even better we were able to keep sampling till the bottles were done, good thing we had Uber to take us back to our hotel. The final treat was getting to try her homemade limoncello. We highly recommend Patrizia for all of her cooking and tasting tours.

Beware of Cats in this tour! We paid almost $1,000 for this for 4 of us and showed up to the 17th Century Building... AKA someone's home. There were two cats that we saw, cat hair all over the plates, cheese, and furniture! The host didn't care that two of us were extremely allergic to cats and said we should have advised them when we booked and they asked if we had any FOOD allergies! Didn't know cat was on the list of allergies we'd have to advise on. She asked us multiple times to change our tour time. We booked through Viator and they only refunded us 50%. If you love cats, this is the tour for you!

Amazing night. Snacks and cheeses were great. Plentyyyy of wine so be sure to walk over ha! Worth the money wish I could go again and I don’t really drink wine

One of our favorite experiences of Palermo! It was easy to find, in a convenient location, and the space was so welcoming. The wine and cheese was delicious and the host was wonderful! She was friendly, fun and very knowledgeable. 10/10, I would recommend it time and time again...I would even consider going myself for a second time.

We had so much fun! We learned about the wines and were able to enjoy each other’s company. The complimentary cheese tasting helped enjoy the flavors and we even got a bonus taste of her homemade pesto pasta- thoroughly enjoyed. Would definitely recommend and do again!

The experience was extremely memorable. We sat at the table with our group of 5 and other group of 5 which created an intimate but Iively crew, and was the perfect number for the experience. We were able to learn about the wines of Sicily and pair it with cheeses that she had recommended. We were plesently surprised by additional dishes that represented Sicilian culture and were delicious, with the whole group buying cookbooks so we can re-create the dishes for our friends and family back home. Highly recommend this experience to all!

The experience was booked and confirmed and the operator did not show up, when we contacted them they informed us that they don't even do the experience on that day and it would not be possible to do the wine and cheese tasting. I'm not sure why viator allowed us to book the experience when it was not even available on that day. We wasted a lot of our time running around getting to the meet point on time and then spent 20mins standing around like idiots for no one. Not impressed.

Our host was extraordinary and the location was cozy, welcoming, and eclectic (and we even got to meet her incredibly approachable cat friends!). The experience was fun and informative, and the wines/cheeses were wonderful! My wife and I love to find gems like this, and we’re looking forward to attending this host/chef’s cooking class as well. Thank you!

Patricia was a wonderful host. Her home is beautiful. She is knowledgeable about wine and her pairings were spot on! She had great cheese and the other dishes she provided were delicious. It was a great introduction to Sicilian wine and local foods. I would love to repeat this event! Highly recommend this adventure!!!

Excellent A++ experience with Patricia. We tasted 6 wines and cheese pairings plus bread, pesto and a dessert. Patricia is very knowledgeable, friendsly, professional and welcomes you in to her home/apartment. Do not hesitate to do this you will be happy you did!!

Loved every minute. Our host was so wonderful. She was knowledgeable about the wines and gave us lots of information about Sicily

Would like a mini version of your wine and cheese tasting for just an hour on April 16th for six people. Pricing please?

The hostess’s warm welcoming personality! Great wines and great cheeses! Beautiful balcony setting! Lots of fun! Gave you an insight to Sicilian living!

My friend an I had the best time learning about good Sicilian wines. Our host Patricia was the best. She paired our wines with some wonderful cheeses and even gave us some appetizers which was not part of the deal. The appetizers were delicious. We really enjoyed the experience and it was one of the best things about our trip.

Lovely host who had experienced knowledge of the fine grapes of Sicily, every wine we tasted had unuiqe characteristics and all was superb. She described the taste, taking you on a historical trip through Sicily from the origin of the grapes, through the winemakers journey and finally to the expression of the bottles representing modern or rustic taste. This was paired with an array of tasty Sicialian cheeses. Last but not least, her lovely home where she makes you feel like family. Mille grazie, Patrizia /Arvid and Jaqueline from the north

Patrizia and Giuliano are consummate hostesses. Their apartment was beautiful and atmosphere was amazing. This was by far, the best wine tasting experience I’ve ever attended.

This lunchtime wine and cheese tasting tour was the highlight of our stay in Palermo. Patrizia welcomed us into her beautiful home and was so warm and friendly. We sampled 6 wonderful wines from Sicily along with local cheeses and desert. Beware of the Limoncello to finish! Thank you so much Patrizia for your knowledge and hospitality. We had the best time with you........

Without doubt the presentation by Patricia, which was so professional and friendly, was the highlight of the evening. The wine, cheese and desert were all amazing and we had a really good chat with many funny stories thrown in. All round, a thoroughly enjoyable experience which I would recommend to anybody interested in this type of event.

Fabulous night - great atmosphere Patrizia made us feel really welcome Very organised Would definitely recommend

We had a wine and cheese tasting with Patrizia and Giuliana. We all agreed It was our best night in Palermo. They welcomed us to their beautiful home and we got to try some amazing wine and some typical Sicilian cheeses. They were very knowledgeable and it was just a delight chatting with them while indulging in some local treats. can recommend any day! Thank you Patrizia and Giuliana:)

Patrizia took us on a tour of Sicily with her wine and cheese tasting. After meeting us on a corner, she took us to a quiet apartment nearby and introduced us to some of Sicily's best wines and unusual cheeses. She explained the source of everything and while enjoying the delicious food she offered with the tastings, we had a lovely conversation about life in Palermo. Patrizia is very knowledgable and taught us a lot. We enjoyed her company very much. And the tasting was very generous and filling. We also got to meet her daughter, Giuliana, who is a professional chef. Great addition to our Palermo adventure.

Great way to spend an evening in Palermo! Our host, Patrizia, couldn’t have been more engaging or hospitable, opening her home to us. Wine was excellent, paired with Sicilian cheese and nibbles.

<p>What a truly delightful experience! The atmosphere that Alfredo and Patrizia created for our wine tasting event was authentic and relaxing. Alfredo knows his wine and Patrizia created delightful treats to accompany that are unique to Sicily! Would highly recommend this event to anyone new to visiting Palermo. You will not be disappointed!</p>

<p>This was the best wine and cheese tasting I have ever been to. Marialuisa was wonderful.</p>

<p>Fantastic, welcoming, jovial, generous hosts. An absolute hoot was had by all 4 of us over the course of a boozy afternoon accompanied by great food in a beautiful city.</p>

Esperienza bellissima , abbiamo condiviso un pomeriggio d’avvero bello , unico . Cucina ottima e ovviamente vino di qualita

Cozy place. Nice and knowledgeable guide. I had given this experience to my wife as a morning gift and she was very pleased, as she herself is very interested and knowledgeable in wine

What a nice hostess Patrizia is and how nice that we could come to her home in the heart of Palermo to taste wine and cheese. Delicious Sicilian wines and cheeses we tasted, learned a lot and also laughed a lot with zn all. I would like to come back again for a cooking lesson from Patrizia
