A divine Autumn for Donnafugata

Appointments not to be missed by Italian wine lovers

 

Marsala, October 9, 2007 – Donnafugata is always close to consumers, professional buyers, wine shops and restaurants managers, partly through participation in the most important and traditional events on the Italian enological calendar.

The new editions of the wine guides are presented in the autumn in Italy, often at festivals like that of the “Salone del Vino” in Turin, which attract thousands of passionate wine lovers from all parts of the peninsula.

These are the best occasions for approaching the world of Donnafugata and to hear reports on the production of an estate that has contributed to the Sicilian enological “renaissance”. And they offer many opportunities to taste wines that faithfully interpret the territory, whether it is that of the volcanic island of Pantelleria or the countryside around Contessa Entellina in the heart of western Sicily.

Here are the most important appointments in Italy during the next two months:
