- WOW! What a fabulous experience! This was the highlight of our trip to Sicily! Gianfranco was amazing; providing us with a fantastic overview tour of Marsala! Then driving us up to his farm and sharing his passion of wine and food! He and his mother (with occasional sightings of his father;) invited us into their winery to enjoy a meal and taste the beautiful regional wines. We helped prepare the gnocchilini; learning the technique and the joy of preparing food in a group. The lunch was amazing with many regional taste sensations; there was no need for supper! Thank you to Gianfranco and his mother for sharing their beautiful world with us. Highly recommend; you will not regret it!
- This experience exceeded my expectations. Gianfranco was the consummate host. We prepared 3 dishes and enjoyed several delicious wines. The antipasti was incredible and I had to be careful not to overeat, but I was sent away with the leftovers. The farm house is worth seeing just for its collection of antique tools and artwork. Highly recommended!
- Best and most authentic experience during our 2-weeks in Sicily! Gianfranco and his family were a pure delight and so passionate about their winery and farm. Everything we used during our cooking class came directly from their property. Mama Maria and sister Linda expertly guided us in making several dishes while keeping us laughing and smiling. Gianfranco was the perfect host and spoke excellent English. He provided us the history of his family and the dishes we were creating, and paired his wines with each course. The amount of food was beyond plentiful - we actually could not eat everything! The evening was magical and we HIGHLY RECOMMEND this experience to everyone!
- One of the best meal in Sicily i ve tryed. Gianfranco and his family were wonderful. And the place (Maltese) is excelllent
