About TERUAR

TERUAR is the ethical wine fair held in Scicli, in the heart of Baroque Sicily, in the province of Ragusa. Created to give a voice to artisan winemakers, it brings together dozens of wineries at Villa Penna that operate according to the principles of natural, organic, and biodynamic winemaking. Two days of tasting tables, meetings with producers, and wine culture, where every label tells the story of a territory and a respectful approach to agriculture. A benchmark event for lovers of authentic and sustainable wines.

TERUAR, ethical wine in the heart of Scicli

TERUAR — Ethical Wine Fair is the first natural wine fair in Scicli, a stunning Baroque town in the province of Ragusa, Sicily. The event is organized by the Arsura - Sete Etica Cultural Association and takes place in the evocative setting of Villa Penna, on the Terrazza 04 overlooking the Iblean countryside. More than just a fair, TERUAR is a manifesto: it was born to highlight the figure of the winemaker and the concept of ethical viticulture, respectful of both the land and the people.

A showcase for natural wine

The heart of the event is the tasting area, where dozens of Italian and international wineries present their wines for tasting. These are producers who have chosen the path of natural, organic, and biodynamic wine: vineyard practices without synthetic chemicals, indigenous yeasts, and minimal intervention in the cellar. Alongside the numerous Sicilian winemakers—who make up the largest contingent—participants come from many Italian regions, from Piedmont to Puglia, from Friuli to Abruzzo, as well as international delegations from France, Slovenia, and Albania.

More than just a tasting

TERUAR is an experience of community and conviviality. Between one glass and another, you can meet the producers, listen to the stories of their lands, and discover the deep bond between wine, landscape, and ethics. The event also dedicates space to families, with a children's area and workshops curated by local associations, because the culture of good drinking goes hand in hand with that of hospitality.

Scicli and the Sicily of wine

Set in one of the most fascinating villages of the Val di Noto, a UNESCO World Heritage site, TERUAR combines oenological discovery with the charm of south-eastern Sicily. Visiting the fair also means immersing yourself in the atmosphere of Baroque Scicli and the flavors of the Iblean land, in a weekend that celebrates wine as an authentic expression of a territory.
