The Zibibbo grapes obtained from these vineyards are unique in the world and are used for the production of the prized Passito di Pantelleria, which received important awards from the international wine critics.<\/p>\n Photo: Consorzio Pantelleria Island<\/p><\/div>\n (www.comunepantelleria.it<\/a>)<\/p>\n 5) MENFI – Wine route Terre Sicane ( Lands of the Sicans)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong> (http:\/\/stradadelvinoterresicane.it<\/a>)<\/p>\n 6) Sicilian Citrus groves<\/strong> Ribera<\/em> (www.aranciadiriberadop.it<\/a>)<\/p>\n 7) AGRIGENTO \u2013 Living Museum of the Almond tree<\/strong> (http:\/\/www.parcovalledeitempli.it<\/a>)<\/p>\n 8) VAL DI NOTO \u2013 Almond groves<\/strong> (www.mandorlavola.com<\/a>)<\/p>\n
\nInside the Madonie Park, the Museum offers a fascinating journey in order to discover the history of manna from the historical, economic, \u00a0mystical and also naturalistic point of view. The landscape of Manna flows through the amenities of the Madonie, a treasure chest to be explored and tasted.<\/p>\n
\n<\/a>A route \u00a0that seals the indissoluble bond between wine and its territory, a bong which strongly characterizes the city of Marsala. An integrated system that unfolds in a series of itineraries and paths, along which are visitable places as wineries, wine cellars, \u00a0vineyards. Not to forget the connections with other routes, \u00a0with Motya and with the salt pans.<\/p>\n
\n<\/a>A picturesque scenery, of ancient olive trees and lush citrus groves, \u00a0lies between the ancient’ Latomie ‘ (quarries where the Selinuntines drew large blocks of tufa limestone for the construction of the ancient town and visible still \u00a0today). All around wonderful rows of ancient Nocellara del Belice olive trees and \u00a0related products. As the grain of tumminia, with which the black bread of Castelvetrano is made , or the \u00a0capers from the Cusa Quarry, another impressive limestone\u00a0 \u00a0quarry used to build Selinunte.<\/p>\n<\/a>
\n<\/a>Terre Sicane is the golden triangle of the Sicilian viticulture: the landscape \u00a0moves on the waves of the vineyards that depict a rural scenery of past \u00a0times \u00a0offering the visitors the possibility of \u00a0a journey of discovery of a territory where the culture of vine and wine is as old as mankind. The vineyards reach the sea and the landscapes enchant the traveller.<\/p>\n
\nVal di Catania<\/em>
\nIn Sicily, the landscape of the citrus fruits is typically widespread on the flat zones near the coastal areas, where there is a greater availability of water and the climate conditions are more favourable, but citrus groves are \u00a0found even in\u00a0 \u00a0flatter environments of fluvial areas \u00a0and torrents , on lands that go up from the coast towards the inland \u00a0<\/strong>and in the most modern plants of considerable surface that stretch in the plain of Catania, in the area of Syracuse and \u00a0in the central southern part of the island , especially concerning the cultivation of orange trees.<\/p>\n
\n<\/a>A wide plateau with gentle slopes that descend to the sea. Today, these soils are populated by citrus groves, but once there was \u00a0produced everything from rice to cotton, from wheat to almonds, then olives, grapes, fruit and vegetables. Since the 16th century, the inhabitants of Caltabellotta came down from the hills on foot, with mules and carts to work the fields on the banks of the river Verdura. The name Ribera has\u00a0 Spanish origins and means Riviera: indeed this coast is really \u00a0a Riviera of lush gardens overlooking the Mediterranean Sea.<\/p>\n
\n<\/a>Inside the Archaeological and Landscape Park of the Valley of the \u00a0temples in Agrigento there was founded the living museum of the almond tree: a real ‘gene bank’ of the different Sicilian almond varieties. The Almond Blossom landscape is celebrated by the famous Festival that celebrates the arrival of spring. But the almond is also one of the products that best identify Sicily and its flavours among \u00a0\u00a0desserts and savoury.<\/p>\n
\nAn ancient land with a strong agricultural characteristic, \u00a0cited in the Eclogues of Virgil, Val di Noto identifies the southeastern Sicily. The wild vegetation represented by the Mediterranean scrub, interspersed by crops, especially by almond cultivations, have given the Valley its great scenic beauty which it is renowned for. \u00a0The varieties of almonds grown are the ‘ Roman ‘,the \u00a0‘ Pizzuta d’Avola ‘ and the ‘ Fascionello ‘.<\/p>\n
