Casa Sicilia Chair

The Casa Cesilia Enotourism Curriculum was born as the result of the signing of a collaboration agreement between Miguel Hernández University of Elche and the Vectalia group. Its objective is to promote winemaking and the wine heritage of the region.  Therefore, it focuses on the development and transfer of knowledge in the field of wine tourism through training and research, as well as the organization of seminars, conferences and other outreach activities.
