“An off-dry Champagne designed more as an aperitif than for the end of the meal, this is elegant and well balanced, with flavors of baked apple and spice. This bottling has some age and it is ready to drink.”

“Limpid orange. Spice-accented red berries and tangerine on the nose and in the mouth. Supple and open-knit, showing good depth and a floral quality that builds on a warm, nicely persistent finish that echoes the red fruit note and shows a hint of fennel.”

2015 Donnafugata Mille e una Notte

Stephanie Johnson, Wine & Spirits, May 2019

“Year's Best Sicilian Wines”

2015 Donnafugata Mille e una Notte

Monica Larner, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, October 2019

“Donnafugata's showcase wine is the always delightful Mille e Una Notte, with 40,000 bottles released in this vintage. The 2015 Sicilia Mille e Una Notte is a beautifully saturated and dark wine, with an elegant full-bodied style and plenty of black fruit and plum that shines bright. The quality of those primary aromas is radiant and fresh. The wine shows its complexity in a second wave of spice, leather and black olive. The blend is mostly Nero d'Avola with Petit Verdot, Syrah and other grapes, and the wine rests in oak barrel for 14 months. This vintage is particularly rich, soft and exuberant.”

2014 Donnafugata Mille e una Notte

Ian D'Agata, Vinous, August 2019

“Fully saturated inky-ruby. Tar and licorice dominate the black cherry, plum and violet aromas on the deep, multifaceted nose. Then deep, dense and suave, with very ripe, almost liqueur-like red and black cherry, cassis, cocoa and sweet spice flavors. Finishes long with a hint of black pepper and a repeating nuance of violet. A big, strapping, brooding wine that needs time and that is in the style of the hot year. Not exactly my preferred style of Mille e Una Notte, but Port lovers and super ripe Napa Cab fans will love this.”
