A prestigious red with a noble and revolutionary soul
Between tradition and innovation
Craftsmanship, creativity and innovation blend into this prestigious red, inspired by one of the protagonists of the novel “The Leopard”. The “passionate” and “revolutionary” character can be found in the style of the namesake wine that was created in 1990, from the innovative blend of an international variety with an indigenous one: Cabernet Sauvignon and Nero d’Avola; a production choice that has led to the discovery of Sicilian winemaking excellence at an international level.
The story of Mille e una Notte
Giacomo and Gabriella's dream
Mille e una Notte was born from Giacomo and Gabriella’s dream of creating a wine that would be unique on the Sicilian wine scene. A dream that became reality thanks to the consultation of the enologist Giacomo Tachis, together with whom Giacomo Rallo gave life to the blend of Mille e una Notte: a combination of Nero d'Avola and international varieties, an excellent red capable of innovating the perception of Sicilian wine throughout the world.

Mille e una Notte
In the author's imagination, the palace illustrated on the label is inspired by the one where Queen Maria Carolina took refuge while fleeing from Naples and was the favorite house of the writer Tomasi di Lampedusa in Santa Margherita Belìce. Gabriella Anca Rallo – founder of Donnafugata together with her husband Giacomo – captures its image and embeds it into the sky from “The Arabian Nights”, full of stars and full of promises. A tribute to the passionate masterpiece of oriental literature, capable of telling a thousand and one fairy tales.
