2019 Colomé Altura Máxima Malbec

Aaron Romano, Wine Spectator, November 2024

“A bold version, but with acidity enlivening the palate, built around cherry paste and licorice flavors. Twinges of orange peel, fresh tobacco and bay leaf swirl in. Finishes with a pleasant chew to the tannins. Good length. Drink now through 2036. ”

2022 Donnafugata SurSur

Eric Guido, Vinous, September 2023

“Candied lime enhances the cooling mint and white flower aromas as the 2022 Grillo Sur Sur comes together in the glass. This is pleasantly round and sweet upon entry, with citrus-tinged orchard fruits and sour melon tones that please the senses. It leaves a mineral staining while finishing incredibly fresh and mouth watering. There's a lovely balance here.”

2021 Donnafugata Sedàra

Danielle Callegari, Wine Enthusiast, April 2024

BEST BUY The nose is primarily savory, with dominant aromas of dirt and coffee, but some pop comes from a black cherry undertone and a crackle of pepper. The palate is more buoyant, with more pronounced fruit and the perkiness of orange jam and wild fennel. Tannins are polished yet structured, like a well-tailored suit.”

2022 Donnafugata Lighea

Tom Hyland, Italian Wine Report, March 2023

“100% Zibibbo; unlike the producer's famous Ben Rye (see below) this is dry. Bright, light yellow; exotic, lovely aromas of apricot, orange zest, passion fruit and jasmine. Medium-bodied with excellent ripeness and freshness, very good acidity, and a clean, round finish of moderage persistence. This is a delightful wine that suprpsies many people; pair this with Asian cuisine and enjoy over the next 3-4 years.”

2023 Donnafugata Rosa Dolce&Gabbana

Danielle Callegari, Wine Enthusiast, December 2024

“The nose has savory aromas of tarragon, seashells and potting soil, but also the sweetness of ultraripe cherry tomatoes and delicate citrus blossoms. The palate is cohesive, with more earth and brine, and then sweet, mature apricots and wild strawberries.”

2023 Donnafugata Rosa Dolce&Gabbana

Eric Guido, Vinous, June 2024

“Wonderfully spicy, the 2023 Rosa is a pretty pale pink color with a bouquet of lime-infused green apples and hints of confectionery spice. It opens with a pretty inner sweetness that gives way to vivid white pear and zests of orange. A core of vibrant acidity maintains fantastic energy within. This cleans up beautifully, crisp and refreshing with a salty flourish—a fantastic rendition of Donnafugata's Rosa, despite the difficulties of the vintage.”

2023 Donnafugata Anthìlia

Eric Guido, Vinous, June 2024

“The 2023 Anthìlia is remarkably pretty, blending white flowers, freshly sliced pears and hints of wet stone. This is silky-smooth with nearly oily textures, offset by a twang of sour citrus and crunchy orchard fruit. The finish is perfumed and crisply refreshing, wrapping things up with a lime and mineral tinge that calls the taster back to the glass.”
