Crunchy, zesty lemon, lime zest, lemongrass, fresh herbal notes, apricot + peonies. Palate is floral with white hydrangea, white grapefruit and a crisp lemon zest finish. 100% Zibibbo (Muscat of Alexandria) from the island of Pantelleria, in southwestern Sicily. The family has been making wine with strong Mediterranean influence in Sicily for over 170 years, with characteristically fresh, minerally and aromatic structure. Giacomo Rallo founded Donnafugata with his wife Gabriella in 1983; today their children José and Antonio lead the vision. Artist Stefano Vitale creates all the label artwork, inspired by Gabriella's feminine energy.

Made from Zibibbo grapes grown on head-trained bush vines. 

"The name Donnafugata refers to the novel by Tomasi di Lampedusa entitled Il Gattopardo (The Leopard). A name that means “donna in fuga” (woman in flight) and refers to the story of a queen who found refuge in the part of Sicily where the company’s vineyards are located today."
