Relais Baglio Donna Franca

An enchanting estate in Marsala, “Donna Franca” offers a vacation or stay with a blend of exclusive elegance and all the magic of a city which has always been unseparatedly linked to the production of quality wine.
Perfectly situated in the centre of the Wine Route and production of Marsala, the most prestigious fortified aromatic wine in the world, this wine tourism allows guests to have a unique experience among the noted great farms, the immense vineyards, a territory rich in history and ancient ‘baglio’ farm estates, testimony to the florid wine industry which developed in this part of Sicily in the mid-19th century.

The most suggestive of these baglio farm estate buildings and set in a true ‘oasis’ is “Donna Franca”, which once belonged to the Florio family, one of the most important families who made Marsala.
Staying here means reliving that ancient and aristocratic atmosphere, relaxing, but also with the opportunity to take part in all the phases of wine-making – ideally in September, the period of the wine harvest, to discover the art and some small secrets of wine-making with all the great flavours of the wine-gastronomic tradition of Western Sicily, such as the couscous of Trapani, red tuna, the pastries and desserts, and many other local culinary specialities which have made this cuisine famous all over the world.
