Fine Wines from One of Sicily's Leading Wineries
Last spring I traveled to Sicily with a group of writers to visit wineries and attend the annual meeting of Assovini Sicilia, the association of Sicilian wine producers.
One of the wineries we visited was Donnafugata, headquartered in Marsala, on the western tip of the island. The city is known for its history (Garibaldi and his red-shirted rebels landed there in 1860) and for Marsala wine, a fortified beverage like Port and Sherry.

Indianapolis homebuyer Mallory Lee is no stranger to the new build process. In fact, Mallory and her husband have built three new homes together. Their most recent move to build was sparked by the addition of their third son. The need for more space, plus a custom plan designed around their lifestyle, led them to Design Gallery Homes, a Build on Your Lot division of Drees Homes.
With an impressive and growing list of more than a dozen independent craft breweries, wineries and distilleries, the City of Carmel is launching a new “Brews & Barrels Trail” to help visitors and residents find unique and crafty takes on their favorite adult beverages.

Adults 21 and over are encouraged to visit one or more of the establishments on the trail to learn more about each of them and have a chance at winning prizes.
