Donnafugata's most famous wine is undoubtedly this white Anthilia, made from the Catarratto and Ansonica grapes. These grapes grow in Sicily's finest vineyards, where abundant sunshine and a fresh breeze make the terroir unique. This is evident upon opening the bottle, as the vibrant bouquet greets you with notes of fresh fruit, floral nuances, and a hint of spice.

Top white wine from Sicily

This white wine is produced by the passionate Rallo family, who have been making wines on the island of Sicily since 1851. With their unique style, they have put Sicilian wine on the map worldwide. This fantastic winery represents the diversity and quality of Sicilian wines. It is currently run by the fifth generation of the family. Donnafugata literally means "woman on the run" and refers to Queen Maria Carolina. She was the wife of Ferdinand IV of Bourbon and fled Naples in the early 19th century when Napoleon's troops invaded the city. She ended up in Sicily, where we find the vineyards of this winery today.

The smell and taste of the Donnafugata Anthilia

This Anthilia has a beautiful straw-yellow color. Donnafugata operates according to the principles of ecologically sustainable viticulture. This is reflected in their management, from pruning to thinning. The grapes are harvested at night, giving them a fresh style. The wine is then aged in stainless steel tanks for two months and then for at least another two months in the bottle. This results in healthy and well-ripened grapes for Anthilia, Donnafugata's classic. The refreshing palate offers a beautiful bouquet of apples, fleshy peaches, and citrus fruit with hints of Mediterranean herbs. In short, this Donnafugata Anthilia is a beautiful wine that pairs well with Mediterranean dishes, smoked fish, antipasti, shellfish, gratinated mussels, and tuna salad.
