The estate’s top red is the 2005 Contessa Entellina Mille e Una Notte, a Nero d’Avola based blend bursting with dark blueberries, violets, smoke, earthiness and minerals. The wine reveals notable depth and richness in a full-bodied style. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2015.
This is a very strong showing from Donnafugata and the Rallo family. The wines this year show notable balance and class.
