A little less than half an hour from the wonderful Taormina and the splendid Catania, the village of San Giovanni Montebello rises in the Etna Park, from where you can admire enchanting landscapes that are articulated between the green of the vineyards and the beauty of the Ionian Sea. Behind this place you can appreciate the view of Mount Etna, the highest active volcano in Europe which dominates these beautiful landscapes, giving a unique spectacle. The Scudero Winery is located in this scenario, made up of a Terrana house from the 1600s belonging to the Scudero Barons of Villanova. On the large terrace in front of the house there is still the ancient cistern with a hexagonal neck, carved in lava stone, the millstone, and the cellar, with narrow slit windows that have always kept the temperature stable inside, allowing the wine to mature and refine.
