Donnafugata Tancredi Dolce & Gabbana DOCG 2018
The wine
First produced in 1990, this Tancredi by the Donnafugata estate is produced in the Terre Siciliane IGT appellation, from the finest grapes grown in the Contessa Entellina vineyards, on hills in southwestern Sicily comprising predominantly clay soils.
Tancredi Dolce&Gabbana Limited Edition 2018 by Donnafugata marks the collaboration between two iconic brands and global ambassadors, showcasing Sicilian culture and the excellence of Made in Italy.
These two institutions, which embody elegance, craftsmanship and creativity, have brilliantly reinterpreted this estate’s historic vintage. To mark this collaboration, the wine is adorned with an exclusive label designed by Dolce&Gabbana, whose design pays tribute to both the Italian baroque and aristocratic tradition and to the revolutionary values that emerged in Sicily following the unification of the country.
The vintage
The year 2018 was marked by significant rainfall, mostly during the spring and summer months. Despite the heavy humidity, the agronomic practices put in place enabled the estate to preserve the vineyard’s state of health, thus harvesting perfectly ripe grapes.
