• My name is Marilena Barbera
    and I am a winegrower.
    I live and craft my wines in Menfi, Sicily.

Pin It

May, Saturday 23rd and Sunday 24th 2015
@ Asti, Palazzo dell'Enofila

This will be our third participation in Vinissage, the traditional piedmontese tasting of natural, organic and biodynamic wines.

The exhibition will take place the last weekend of May in Asti, with the participation of Officina Enoica, editor of the Critical Guide to Italian Wines.

We will pour the new vintages of our sicilian wines made with indigenous traditional grapes: very proud to show the beautiful whites from last vintage 2014 that are already showing amazing elegance and finesse. Very special guests Dietro le Case and Ammàno, which are unique expressions of Inzolia and Zibibbo respectively.

More information about opening hours and scheduled speaches and tastings, and about the exhibitors' list are available on the Vinissage official website.
