2018 Donnafugata Tancredi Dolce&Gabbana
Eric Guido, Vinous, July 2022
“The 2018 Tancredi Dolce & Gabbana is a deep purple color in the glass, with a dark and moody mix of plum sauce, black currants, grilled herbs and balsamic spice. It's silky-smooth and elegant with medium-bodied weight, getting depths of black and red wild berry fruits, hints of sour citrus and mocha. Fine tannins are left to linger through the incredibly long and lightly structured finale, as inner violet florals and hints of salted licorice taper off. The Tancredi is primarily composed of Cabernet Sauvignon, Ner d'Avla and Tannat, and it is refined for a year in new barriques. It's a very pretty, yet deep, wine that needs a bit of cellaring to come fully into focus.”

Alison Napjus, Wine Spectator, May 2022
“Rich hints of toast and mocha underscore the crème de cassis, fig cake and cigar box notes on display in this harmonious medium- to full-bodied red. The tannins are dense yet well-meshed, emerging on the mineral-laced finish. Cabernet Sauvignon, Nero d'Avola and Tannat. ”

2020 Donnafugata SurSur
Kerin O'Keefe, Wine Enthusiast, December 2021
“Editor's Choice. This bright, savory white shows why Grillo is so popular right now. It opens with heady scents of white spring blossom, white stone fruit and wild Mediterranan herb. Crisp and tangy, the incredibly enjoyable palate doles out juicy white peach, cantaloupe and saline mineral notes.”

2021 Donnafugata SurSur
Eric Guido, Vinous, July 2022
“The 2021 Grillo SurSur bursts from the glass with candied lemon offsetting tropical sour melon and floral tones. This impresses further with a pleasant inner sweetness contrasted by zesty green citrus and bright acidity. It finishes with medium length and leaves the palate with a dash of mouthwatering tension. The 2021 is a total pleasure and the perfect wine for the dog days of summer.”

James Molesworth, Wine Spectator, October 2022
“A ripe, polished style, with currant, plum and blackberry preserves lined with mocha-accented toast, sweet tobacco and melted licorice. Stays reserved in feel overall and relies a bit on the toast, but there's ample fruit in reserve. Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Best from 2023 through 2034. ”
