In the fascinating and lesser-known southwestern corner of Sicily, the Terre Sicane Wine Route – named after the ancient Sicans who once inhabited this area – unfolds between the Belìce and Verdura rivers, Mount Genuardo and the Mediterranean Sea. This scenic route includes the towns of Sciacca, Menfi, Sambuca di Sicilia, Santa Margherita di Belìce, Montevago and Contessa Entellina.
From Contessa Entellina to Sciacca
The Terre Sicane Wine Route takes travelers through a region steeped in history, archaeology and culture, where architectural gems and breathtaking landscapes abound. Highlights include the magnificent archaeological park of Selinunte, the evocative ruins of Gibellina, rolling hills that descend from Porto Palo to Cape San Marco and meet the sea, and the historic artistry of coral and ceramics from the ancient town of Xacca (now Sciacca).
A Must-Visit for Winelovers
This land, shaped by centuries of conquests and cultural exchange, is also a remarkable wine destination. Fertile soils, a deep-rooted winemaking tradition and welcoming wineries make the Terre Sicane a must-visit for winelovers. Every element of this territory contributes to transforming a simple journey into a captivating food and wine experience.
