Join us for a masterclass with Sicilian producer COS, led by owner and winemaker Giusto Occhipinti. He’ll walk us through the region and the story behind the estate while you taste seven wines and explore what makes each one unique. Light shared appetizers will be served.

COS is a benchmark producer that helped shape the modern natural wine movement. Founded in 1980 by three friends just out of high school, Giambattista “Titta” Cilia, Giusto Occhipinti, and Cirino Strano, the winery began with family vineyards and a shared passion that quickly took hold. The name COS comes from the initials of their last names, and their approach has always centered on traditional methods, including the use of amphora, large clay vessels that predate barrels, for aging. Based in the heart of Sicily’s only DOCG, Cerasuolo di Vittoria, COS produces wines that are both true to their region and highly regarded worldwide, with certified organic farming and biodynamic practices guiding their work.
