We loved our visit to Mulino ad Acqua. Each unique space gives you a great insight into the history of the area and how people lived there. Seeing the mill in action and operated the latest in many generations of millers who have worked there is really fascinating.

My dad's girlfriend is Italian and she booked the visit and translated for the owner. I was amazed that the grotto kept a steady temperature for winter and for summer so the grotto was surprisingly warm and cosy despite the chilly winter wind outside. The owner gave us a thorough tour of the place and showed us all kinds of interesting things, from the photos of the grotto families, to the inventive toys that the children used to play, to his son's beautiful artwork that was up for sale. The owner was especially excited talking to us as I was filming with my DSLR and he was eager to have a video of his grotto aiming for an English audience. I was promised to send him a link when I finish it so wish me luck on it!

The Azienda Agricola Poggio di Bortolone was founded by the Cosenza Family at the end of the eighteenth century, immediately after Sicily’s transition out of feudalism and the annexation by mainland Italy. Since that time it has been passed down from father to son and today Pierluigi Cosenza, Ignazio's son, is the current owner and manager of the Poggio di Bortolone Estate. Whilst embracing the long established Family traditions, introducing fresh and innovative ideas to build on the successes of the past.The land has been used for the cultivation of grapes, olives and wheat over many centuries and today the winery's ancient wooden press and traditional oil mill are to be found amongst the relics of bygone days to remind visitors of the proud origins of the Estate. The old and now redundant limestone watermill, beside the river Para Para, is being lovingly restored to its former splendour and is yet another reminder of past traditions which continued right up Word War II

If you are looking for one vineyard to visit for a tasting, this is the one! We called last-minute during harvest season, and even though they were very busy they still made time to receive us for a tasting the same afternoon even though we called the same day (tip: do call beforehand and let them prepare amply!) . They were very friendly and we got to hear a lot about the history of the area and of the grapes of the area. We had a great tasting of the wines they produce there with some very very tasty sicilian dishes which were sooo good, probably because of the locally sourced ingredients. And the wines are amazing, their frapatto is exactly the light bodied fruity wine I have always been searching for. We ended up buying a case of wine even though we didnt really have the space for it in our luggage, it was that good. I actually tried another cerasuolo di vittoria docg from another vineyard later on in my trip, and the one I had here was definitely much better. If you visit please do take his card and let him ship straight to you, I'm going to do the same as soon was we get through our case :)

This church is one of a kind. It dominates the square. Inside you will see the only church having curtains hanged between the columns. You can also have a small tour if the old church destroyed after earthquake.

It was the noontime bells ringing from this Cathedral that lured me over there during a short stay at Ragusa. It was a great experience to enter there and share time for prayers, knowing that millions of other people before me through the ages, did exactly that.
