- Tasting
- Elegant, medium-bodied and velvety tannins, has a pleasant freshness. It is characterized by a large bouquet, balsamic notes, violet and sweet tobacco.
'Tancredi' by Donnafugata, Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend is an important red, elegant structure and the large supply of scents; hints of licorice, cocoa and black cherry with a touch of menthol notes. Wide and enveloping structure, remarkably persistent, goes well with red meats.
COLLECTION MEDITERRANEAN ELEGANCE
Donnafugata was founded in Sicily by an enterprising family with 160 years’ experience in premium wines. Giacomo Rallo and wife Gabriella, daughter José and son Antonio are engaged in an entrepreneurial project with a focus on attention to detail and synchronizing people and nature to make wines that correspond increasingly more to the potential of this area.
The Donnafugata adventure began in the Rallo family’s historic cellars in Marsala in 1983 and at its Contessa Entellina vineyards in the heart of western Sicily. In 1989, Donnafugata arrived on the island of Pantelleria, commencing its production of naturally sweet wines.
