A truly amazing day, with our family at Barbara's home - We did a tasting and lunch two years ago and came back this year for a cooking class, vineyard tour and a beautiful, delicious lunch which we helped prepare. The views are amazing, Barbara is amazing, so warm and inviting, we had a beautiful day at her home.

Do not miss this lunch/wine tasting!!! - We had the most incredible lunch at Barbara's vineyard! She gave us a tour of the farm, and then served a lunch where none of the ingredients came from more than a mile away! Most she grew herself, and the recipes were her own. Most important were the love infused in the food! And of course the wines matched the menu perfectly! In the end, Barbara was family! She also has other options, like hiking, glamping, and Etna tours. She was the high point of our trip to Sicily!

Wine Tasting Extraordinaire! - The wine tasting experience far exceeded my expectations! Barbara is an excellent host and touring the vineyards increased my awareness of the differences in growing grapes on a mountain in Sicily surrounded in volcanic ash and how grapes are grown in California. The lunch she served was perfectly paired with very fine white and red wines. The food she prepared was incredible! Five courses and I left nothing on any of the platters. This experience was enhanced by the fact that I was the center of Barbara's attention and not part of a large group.

Unforgettable Sicily experience - Wonderful private vineyard tour, wine tasting and cooking class on the slopes of Mt. Etna. Barbara is a warm, charming and knowledgeable host. The food was delicious, with a strong focus on local produce. The weather was perfect so we had lunch on the terrace with a magnificent view of the vines, Mt. Etna and the sea. This was the best part of our Italy trip so far. Do not hesitate to reserve.

One of the best foodie experiences ever! - We learned to cook arancini al ragu and Sicilian canoli with Barbara and her assistant on an outdoor kitchen on the side of Mt. Etna! I mean, it doesn't get much better than that! A foodie's dream-come-true, learning to prepare traditional foods in a dreamy setting--by far better than the movie Eat, Pray, Love. Barbara is extremely friendly, hospitable, fun, and always smiling and laughing. After our first meal, we walked down to the vineyards and happened to be there when they were harvesting grapes where we got a first hand view at how they're hand picked, and then hiked back up for meal two, cheeses, meats, bread, and more local cusine--and of course--more wine. Make sure when you visit to check out the glamping tent designed for bathroom breaks. Everything Barbara does is over-the-top excellent. If you visit Sicily, make sure to visit Barbara!!! An excellent experience!!!

Best Part of Sicily Trip - Barbara has an amazing property, right off of a beautiful vineyard with Mt. Etna in the background, incredibly picturesque. The food made was incredible, one of the best meals I have had in my life. Every ingredient incredibly fresh. They were able to cater to vegetarians too! The wine was so good. I didn’t think I liked Italian wine but turns out Mt. Etna changed my mind. The soils of Mt. Etna grow some amazing grapes. Barbara is a sweetheart and we loves talking to her and getting a tour of the local vineyard.

Barbara Liuzzo Vineyard - We had such a lovely time at Barbara's vineyard and learned so much about the growing of grapes on Mt. Etna. The 2 wines we tried were wonderful and went so well with our lunch. It was definitely a wonderful experience in food and culture.

Barbara's tasting and delicious cooking - We had a wonderful time walking thru the vineyards and enjoying a gorgeous tasting and pranzo on Barbara's terrace. A truly warm, yet exclusive experience. Couldn't recommend it more.

Wine tasting and touring on Etna, Get Your Etna makes the best of the way things turn out, highly recommended! - Barbara Liuzzo is incredible, so positive, lively and informative. My husband and I had arranged a tour and tasting of Benanti vineyards with Get Your Etna, and between the rain, fog and Etna ash, it wasn't possible to go into the vineyards and do our plan. But Barbara made the very best of the situation, inviting us into her home, cooking for us and tasting two small producer wines that were probably the best I had during my entire 2 weeks in Sicily! We learned a lot about not only wine, but the marriage of food and wine which is so important in Italy. We are looking forward to returning to Sicily in the future, and would definitely connect with Barbara and Get Your Etna for another Etna experience. Highly recommended!

A fabulous vineyard and lunch experience with a wonderful host - My husband and I just returned from two weeks in Sicily. Our travel consultant arranged the trip and set up what she told us was a "wine tasting/lunch" near Mt Etna. We didn't know what to expect, but having worked with that travel consultant several times, we were confident it would be great. And it turned out to be way more than great - it was fabulous. We met our host, Barbara, at the gates of the vineyard and walked through it with her, talking about wine making in that vineyard and on the slopes of Mt Etna. The location and views were spectacular. Then she led us to a lovely property next-door to the winery - and it turned out to be Barbara's home!! She had set up a table for two on her gorgeous patio and then served us a multi-course lunch, all home-cooked herself. (We learned later that she runs a cooking school there.) She served us so may different dishes, all of which were wonderful, and she spent time talking to us and answering all our questions on every topic. It was a wonderful lunch in a beautiful setting, filled with great conversation with Barbara. We'll never forget our afternoon with Barbara - and we've already exchanged emails after arriving home. Mille Grazie Barbara!!!!
