2020 Donnafugata Mille e una Notte
Monica Larner, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, April 2025
“One of Sicily's most beloved reds, the Donnafugata 2020 Sicilia Mille e Una Notte is Nero d'Avola with Petit Verdot, Syrah and a few other local grapes. All the fruit is selected from across the Rallo family's sprawling Contessa Entellina estate that counts 343 hectares of vines. This barrique-aged red offers lots of fruit weight and a full-bodied approach with dark fruit, dried blackberry, spice and sweet tobacco. This vintage offers especially supple tannins and lasting richness. ”

2019 Donnafugata Tancredi Dolce&Gabbana
Monica Larner, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, April 2025
“I am surprised to see the rebranding of what is one of the protagonists in the Donnafugata portfolio with a reputation that has been carefully built over the years. This bottle, which previously saw a cream-colored label, has now been decked out with the colors and prints of one of Italy's most celebrated fashion designers. The 2019 Tancredi Dolce & Gabbana is a charming blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Nero d'Avola, Tannat and a few other local red varieties. It ferments in steel but matures in barrique. This full-bodied red shows bolds aromas of blackberry, spice and baking chocolate. This vintage shows extra concentration. ”

2019 Donnafugata Cuordilava Dolce&Gabbana
Monica Larner, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, April 2025
“This is a colorful collaboration with one of Italy's most beloved fashion houses. The Donnafugata 2019 Etna Rosso Cuordilava Dolce & Gabbana opens to a glossy garnet appearance with bright cherry and redcurrant. The wine offers a subdued and almost shy personality that comes in contrast to the vintage that shows a very firm quality of fruit with good depth. Winemaking starts off in stainless steel, and the wine ages in once-used barrique. ”

2019 Donnafugata Cuordilava Dolce&Gabbana
Eric Guido, Vinous, June 2024
“The 2019 Dolce & Gabbana Etna Rosso Cuordilava mixes enriching notes of cherry sauce and autumnal spice with dusty rose and hints of cedar. This is silky-smooth, with a creamy wave of ripe red and hints of blue fruits that flows across a stream of cooling acidity. A web of fine tannins coats the palate, leaving behind a subtle hint of wood spice and a crunchy cranberry resonance that hangs on. Simply stunning. The Cuordilava is a blend of three vineyards on Etna and is refined in barriques (only 15% new).”

2021 Donnafugata Ben Ryé
Monica Larner, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, April 2025
“Always a treat to taste, this wine is an institution in the elite world of Italian dessert wines. The Donnafugata 2021 Passito di Pantelleria Ben Ryé is made with carefully sun-dried Zibibbo grapes (Muscat of Alexandria) from terraced vineyards on this windy volcanic island off the coast of Sicily in the direction of Libya. The wine shows an orange-leaning-into-amber color and reveals quite a bit of fireworks in terms of its aromas. There is honey, candied fruit, almond paste, white raisin and dried apricot. You also get a beautiful note of acidity that recalls freshly squeezed blood oranges. This vintage celebrates the two-year anniversary since Pantelleria gained UNESCO World Heritage Status for its ancient head-pruned vines. Production is 96,000 bottles (including smaller 375-milliliter formats).”

2022 Colomé El Arenal Malbec
Matthew Luczy, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, May 2025
“The 2022 El Arenal Malbec derives from two plots at 2,600 meters in altitude and underwent a 12-month élevage in 500-liter barrique, 60% of which were new. It is impressively integrated on the nose, leading with a refined, black-fruited and saturated bouquet, introducing a fittingly svelte, dense and taut palate. As is consistent across the Colomé lineup, the finish is intense, inky and staining yet supported by bracing minerality and ultrarefined tannins.”

2022 Colomé El Arenal Malbec
Tim Atkin, Tim Atkin, July 2024
“El Arenal is a brilliant, single-site Malbec from a vineyard of the same name at 2,600 metres. Now into its fourth vintage, it’s an intense, concentrated, high-altitude style, with masses of colour, plum and blackberry fruit intensity, lots of zip and minerality and beautifully judged 60% new oak. Superb from Thibaut Delmotte. 2025-32”

2022 Colomé El Arenal Malbec
Virginie Boone, Jeb Dunnuck, May 2025
“With an herbal, earthy imprint of red fruit, ample tannin, and present oak, the 2022 Malbec Colome El Arenal is full-bodied yet fresh, with an ample length of anise, leather, and dried herb. The structure suggests further cellaring, with a good drinking window of 2032-2042.”

2021 Colomé El Arenal Malbec
Aaron Romano, Wine Spectator, June 2024
“Offers violet, slate and herb notes up front, with a core of plum and berry flavors enlivened by a touch of fresh acidity, allowing the finish to lengthen a bit around fine tannins and a loamy note. Drink now through 2034. 2,000 cases made, 186 cases imported”

2021 Colomé El Arenal Malbec
Jesica Vargas, Wine Enthusiast, July 2024
“This Malbec comes from vines planted at 8,500 feet in Salta, Argentina's northern wine region, and was aged for 12 months in oak barrels. The nose bursts with cherries and blueberries, joined by a dash of baking spices. It's juicy and slightly herbaceous on the palate, but intense wood spice and black fruit balance it. The finish displays earthy notes of dark chocolate and thyme. ”

2021 Colomé El Arenal Malbec
Joaquín Hidalgo, Vinous, February 2024
“The 2021 Malbec El Arenal hails from Payogasta in the Calchaquí Valley. Aged 12 months in 60% new 500-liter French oak barrels, it’s dark purple in hue. The nose unfolds with notes of blackberry, blueberry and chutney. Rich and intense, with fine-grained tannins and a dusty texture, the palate is compact and complex. This is a pure, intense high-altitude wine.””

2021 Colomé El Arenal Malbec
Virginie Boone, Jeb Dunnuck, May 2025
“A deliciously impressive high-altitude red, the 2021 Malbec Colome El Arenal wows in complex layers of black and blue fruit, finding additional complexity in an herbal backbone dotted in black pepper and spiced oak. Supple tannins give it a breadth and depth that suggest further aging potential another 15-20 years.”

2021 Colomé El Arenal Malbec
James Suckling, James Suckling, March 2023
“A rich but fresh malbec with plenty of blackberries, raw spices, graphite, stones and violets on the nose. The firm and powerful, dusty tannins lend a bit more density and weight to the already structured, full-bodied palate without over-extraction. Pretty pristine and tannic but comfortably chewy. Needs two years to get the tannins softened. Better from 2025”

2024 Colomé Estate Torrontés
Matthew Luczy, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, May 2025
“The 2024 Estate Torrontés is a quintessential, high-elevation expression of the variety, opening with citrus blossom and dried white flower aromas followed by a chiseled, precise palate and a chalky, high-toned finish.”

2024 Colomé Estate Torrontés
Kyle Swartz, Beverage Dynamics, April 2025
“The torrontes grape variety has brought Argentinean white winemaking to the world’s attention. This example produced from grapes grown at altitude, is bright, clean and elegant. The nose is complex, with fruit and floral notes, and a long and balanced finish.”

Kyle Swartz, Beverage Dynamics, April 2025
“A brilliant pale gold with green hints, the nose is dominated by an attractive blend of tropical and exotic fruits.

2023 Bruno Giacosa Roero Arneis
Audrey Frick, Jeb Dunnuck, May 2025
“The 2023 Roero Arneis is a bright silver/yellow color, and the nose is fresh and savory, with notes of white peaches, melon rind, lemon oils, and light savory chive notes. Perfectly suited for pairing alongside crudo and vitello tonnato, this medium-bodied white is refreshing and spritely, with a touch of white pepper and a kiss of sweet fruit. It can be enjoyed over the next few years, but it’s so good now while it's fresh, there’s no need to wait.”
