Terre di Noto - Vigneti e Cantine

A little gem of a wine tasting spot. A true family business. Ludovico (winemaker) had to pitch in since his wife had a family obligation. Quick tour of the vineyard, crushing equipment, winemaking facility and barrel room. Clearly a lot of wine knowledge and passion here as both father and son have oenology degrees. Tasted through probably more wines than were technically included in our tasting. And paired with a substantive and delicious “snack” including their own olive oil. Wines were consistently good to very good. And we were the only people tasting at this time. So different from the big wineries as we got to ask so many (possibly too many!) questions directly to the winemaker. And the wines are amazingly affordable given the quality of the wine. Can’t recommend this visit highly enough if you’re looking for a low key, high quality wine tasting.

This was one of our favorite wine tastings of all time. We were given a tour by Ludovico, the winemaker, who is passionate about his wines. We did the tasting with the Sicilian snacks. The food really brought out the best in the wines. And the cannoli, made by Ludovico's mamma, will always be one of my favorite memories of Sicily. Excellent wines. Excellent experience.

A nice secure location with lovely lovely service and hospitality. On site 1 year old dog 🐶 available as well for the full fun vineyard experience.

We had 5 glasses for tasting before investing in the local organic red, rose, and white wines.

They tasted good ;) The more cherry 🍒 influenced red wine is the preference over the default red one.

Nice facilities and parking.

What an incredible experience! Ludovico was such a wonderful host. We came for my partner's birthday and he gave us a tour of the brewery and told us all about the wine production process which was amazing. The picnic was delicious and picturesque under the olive grove looking out across the vineyard. I feel so lucky to experience such a wonderful place. A must visit!! ❤

It was a wonderful experience.
I booked a visit to the winery via the Internet and was pleasantly surprised how quickly they responded to me and agreed on a date and time convenient for us.
I was a little worried because we were 2 families(9 people and 4 of them are children). But everything went amazing!
Paola gave a wonderful, engaging tour, the tasting set was wonderful and we expanded it a little more.
The winery has a large number of items that you can buy.

We would like to say a huge thank you to Paola and the entire winery team for such a wonderful experience.
We'll definitely come again!

I have visited several wineries, but this was definitely one of the best. We received an excellent explanation from the son, who took over the business from his parents. He gave a detailed account of how the wine is made. The atmosphere was really cozy thanks to the family feel. The wines were delicious, and it is highly recommended for both tourists and locals. Many greetings from Belgium!

It's a must-visit for those seeking quality wines and a welcoming, educational experience.

Amazing place! Amazing wine! Amazing dogs! They did the ture in English for us, it was very interesting. The food was tasty. The wine was amazing. The machine that pickt the grapes, how dose it do that? Incredible! Thank you for a very good day!

My wife and I had exciting experience in Terre di Noto.
We stayed in Avola for a week visiting the baroque towns, and decided to check out a vinery to try a local wine. Terre di Noto was among the top choices in the ratings, not that far, and the prices were reasonable. We gave a call to them and ordered a red wine tasting for two. We were met by Paula who gave us a nice vineyard tour, answering all our questions along the way.
Paula then guided us with testing of 3 different reds, accompanied with a plate with some local snacks. We especially liked Calauris Black Eloro Nero d'Avola, bought couple bottles to enjoy later.
Spent wonderful 2 hours in the vinery. Thanks !

We arrived without a booking and the staff was very kind to provide us with a tasting. Everything we tried was fantastic and well produced. We ended up buying the dry muscato di Noto (Salicornia) which was a tremendous pairing with the shrimp pasta we made for dinner. I also loved both of the Nero d’avola bottles we tried. A+ experience. Great wines where you can taste the craft in production and lovely people.

Can't recommend Terre di Noto enough!! We didn't book anything but turned up to see if we could taste some wine. Luckily Ludovico was available and let us taste a range of his different wines, explaining about each one as we went. He knew the products so well and we really enjoyed learning about the history of their wine - particularly the origins of Nero D'Avola! We liked the products so much that we are planning on getting some shipped over to the UK!

Made a surprise visit and was warmly welcomed to a super friendly and generous tasting of six (maybe seven?) high-quality wines. Very impressed and hope these wines will be available in Ontario one day.

We had a great time! Everyone was super friendly and you could really see the passion and science that goes into winemaking at this family company. The food (especially the freshly made canoli) and of course the wine were also great, so I would absolutely recommend visiting!

Such an incredible and authentic experience! The winery is family owned and you can tell they take such pride in their craft. We enjoyed a red wine tasting and light lunch, both were delicious. We cannot wait to come back!

Fantastic wine tasting with a knowledgeable and humble host. We got interesting walkthrough of their winemaking process. The tasting itself was very nice with good snacks paired with the wine. Highly recommended for the humble price!

Ludivico di marco and his family run a wonderful vineyard. Incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about sustainability and biodiversity in winemaking which is so important. Was fascinating learning about their organic practices and the wines were delicious most importantly! The tasting flight and food pairings were also great. Thank you for looking after us so well, highly recommend! (The friendly farm dogs were an added bonus!)

Great wine tour by Ludovigo who took care of us very generously. Recommend this small family winery!

A perfect tasting with wonderful wines and a great host showing us the wine making process.
And the best cannoli we had in Sicily.

We showed up unannounced on a Saturday to taste and buy some bottles of wine. The owners don't speak English but called their daughter-in-law to the rescue who told us about their wines and held a small tasting for us. She knew the products well and we had a great visit - and of course, we liked the products a lot. The tasting area is nice and big, suitable for groups too.

The most amazing hospitality! If in Sicily, this is a MUST see!! Went way over and beyond to help us have our picnic!
