of grapes worthy of the most demanding palates. The island boasts of many famous types of grape, such as Grillo, Catarratto, Inzolia, Zibibbo, Malvasia, Nero d’Avola and Frappato. Although there are no DOCG (guaranteed registered designation of origin), the many DOC (registered designation of origin) and IGT (regional geographical indication) testify to the high quality wine production in the region. And it is in the very heartland of the Baroque that there are many important DOC, such as
the Moscato of Noto, a sweet wine that has its roots in the Pollio grape, much prized by the Romans and el’Eloro, which produces the red and pink variant and whose production area extends to the shores of Pachino and Cape Passero. Of great interest are also the Moscato of Syracuse, white with amber glints, a delicate bou- quet and velvety taste, and the Cerasuolo of Vittoria, a red wine to accompany roast meat, with a warm, full-bodied taste.
A journey, therefore, on the discovery of taste.
A website is a showcase in front of which any person on the planet with an internet connection, can stop and look. And like any selfrespecting showcase, this must be able to attract the attention of those who see it, to intrigue them and to fulfil all their desires. For this reason, the sites of Athena Palace, the Rome Hotel and the Caiammari Hotel have been completely rene- wed, giving both splendid facilities the elegance that they merit even in virtual reality. The elegant rooms and charming surroundings of the Rome Hotel now have a ‘virtual’ reality capable of reflecting their beauty and hospitality and the beautiful park and the comfortable rooms of the Caiammari will fascinate all the internet users who visit the new sites. Finally, a renewed capability for booking online is the show-piece of this restyling, which will allow future guests to book their rooms with even greater ease.
Athena Palace, the holiday in a click.
