Sicilian wine has its own deep cellar, and Palermo's wine bars pour it with conviction across the old town and the Liberta quarter. Bocum Mixology and Botteghe Colletti in the Vucciria double as serious drinking rooms, while Enoteca Picone on Via Marconi and Buonivini on Via Dante anchor the Liberta scene. Enosteria Sicula near the Politeama and A'Putia, a salumeria and wine room in the Zisa, round out the list.
Buonivini on Via Dante in Palermo's Liberta runs a wine-shop-and-bar hybrid, full Sicilian wine list with rare Marsala bottlings, aperitivo plates and bottle.
TipBottle retail open by day; bar from 18:00. The Marsala flight is the educational pour.
Enoteca Picone on Via Marconi in Palermo's Liberta since 1946 is the city's senior enoteca, three rooms of wine retail with a tasting bar, the Sicilian wine.
TipThe third-room degustazione bar opens 19:00; cheese and charcuterie are the standard pairings.
