This dessert wine is partly made from dried grapes. The result is a complex and elegant wine with a raisiny nose, apricots on the palate and a lingering finish (12 x 50 cl)
The dried grape version of this exquisite wine is full of fig and rich raisin character, yet still retains the fresh, uncloying sweetness of the standard 'cru'. (6 x 50 cl)
A single vineyard in the middle of the Donnafugata estate produces a wine with a densely packed nose backed up by a palate with plenty of weight and structure. Made primarily with the Inzolia variety. (6 x 75 cl)
Top flight Sicilian wine with a nod to international flavours. A combination of Cabernet Sauvignon, the local Nero d'Avola and barrique ageing give it an elegance backed up by a powerful finish. (6 x 75 cl)
