SICILIA EN PRIMEUR

Sicilia en Primeur, an international showcase of Sicilian winemaking excellence Sicilia en Primeur was created by Assovini Sicilia back in 2004. Since then, it has strengthened more and more its reputation as an international event, as the Sicilian window into the world, capable of attracting the wine specialized press and of becoming a not to-be-missed wine event. The annual touring event alternates winetasting, tours, masterclasses, conferences, winery visits. The protagonists are the wine producers as members of “Assovini Sicilia”, who represent the excellence of Sicilian production in all of its dimensions, from the smallest to the largest winery. Every year, a different theme connects viticulture to the cultural history of Sicily, and wine is definitely elected as a symbol and protagonist of the Sicilian cultural heritage. The partner companies wine pro duction, tastings and observations on the vintage are at the heart of all the meetings. Wine becomes thus an exclusive key to understanding the thousand facets of the island and its historical-cultural heritage, together with the history of the winemakers and the partner wineries. The city of Erice was selected by Assovini Sicilia as the venue of the 18th edition of Sicilia en Primeur 2022. Erice represents a deeper meaning choice connected with its profile and history: a cultural and scientific center of international renown, as well as a laboratory of ideas. Therefore, the medieval city becomes the city of the future, a strong supporter of values consistent with sustainability such as respect for the environment, science, the genius loci, traditions, continuity with the past heritage and the idea of a sustainable, low impact future
