Donnafugata Brut Millesimato sparkling wine

Donnafugata Brut Millesimato is a premium Italian sparkling wine produced in Sicily. The brand Donnafugata was founded in 1983 by the Rallo family, who have a long history in the Marsala wine industry dating back to 1851. The name 'Donnafugata' refers to the novel 'The Leopard' and means 'woman in flight,' referencing Queen Maria Carolina who found refuge in Sicily.

The wine is manufactured primarily in the Donnafugata cellars in Marsala and the Contessa Entellina estate in Sicily, Italy. The production follows the Metodo Classico (traditional method), ensuring high-quality bubbles and complex flavors. The brand remains under the ultimate ownership of the Rallo family through their company Donnafugata S.r.l., maintaining its status as an independent, family-run winery that focuses on sustainable viticulture and celebrating Sicilian culture through artistic labeling.
