FESTIVAL OPEN TIMES
Saturday and Sunday 11am – 5pm
WINE
Taste Politini Wines
- Pull up a chair, fill your glass, and taste the heart of Sicily in the King Valley. From crisp, bubbly Proseccoand citrus-bright Grecanico, to the cherry-rich warmth of Sangioveseand the bold embrace of Nero d’Avola. At La Dolce Vita Festival 2025, share in the flavours we’ve carried from our Sicilian roots to the King Valley — wines made for food, for friends, and for celebrating life the Italian way.
FOOD – served from 12pm – 4pm
Grazing Platters
- Indulge in generous grazing platters brimming with the best Italian cheeses, cured meats, olives, and seasonal produce.
Sicilian Sweets
- Finish on a sweet note with cannoli, chocolate salami, and other Sicilian treats, perfectly paired with espresso
Zizzu Spritz
- A refreshing twist on the classic spritz — crafted with Limoncello, our late harvest Zizzu, and finished with a splash of crisp Prosecco. Bright, zesty, and unmistakably Italian — the perfect sip for La Dolce Vita.
