The 2021 vintage of Donnafugata's top wine continues the dialogue between "art and wine" at Donnafugata in the best possible way: The Special Edition Mille e una Notte 2021 is dedicated to the great timeless story told in the brand new Netflix series "The Leopard". It is based on the literary masterpiece by Tomasi di Lampedusa, in which the protagonist's possessions are called "Donnafugata". No better wine could therefore be chosen to honour this epic tale set in the heart of western Sicily, precisely where the Donnafugata vineyards are located and where Mille e una Notte was born. The bottle has been enhanced with a precious label featuring baroque decorations that reflect the style and elegance shown in the series.

Impenetrable, dark ruby red colour. The aroma is enveloping with sweet and ripe - not cooked - fruity notes, balsamic and floral nuances of violets, final with hints of tobacco. The flavour has a great structure and pronounced individuality. The balance of the soft tannins, which are perfectly integrated into the alcoholic component, and the long finish are also convincing. Radiant and powerful. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2021 Mille e Una Notte is dark and brooding, smoldering up with a beguiling bouquet of dusty sage and cedar shavings, enhanced by nuances of menthol and cocoa before giving way to blackcurrant. Savory to the core, it offers velvety textures lifted by brisk acidity as a mass of red fruit saturates the senses. The 2021 grips the palate with youthful tension and finishes with a wall of tannins nicely contrasted by a tinge of citrus and licorice. This powerful rendition of Mille e Una Notte will require extreme patience." Vinous
