Wine Advocate Review
Rated 93
I am surprised to see the rebranding of what is one of the protagonists in the Donnafugata portfolio with a reputation that has been carefully built over the years. This bottle, which previously saw a cream-colored label, has now been decked out with the colors and prints of one of Italy's most celebrated fashion designers. The 2019 Tancredi Dolce & Gabbana is a charming blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Nero d'Avola, Tannat and a few other local red varieties. It ferments in steel but matures in barrique. This full-bodied red shows bolds aromas of blackberry, spice and baking chocolate. This vintage shows extra concentration. Drinking Window 2024-2030.
Wine Tasting Notes
Donnafugata Tancredi Dolce & Gabbana Rosso Terre Siliciane IGT with an intense ruby red color, combines notes of fruit such as plums and blueberries, with delicate spicy hints of liquorice and sweet tobacco. On the palate it unfolds all its enveloping and plentiful personality with perfectly integrated tannins; it ends with a long and elegant persistence. Tancredi goes perfectly with red meat and game; recommendable also the pairing with tuna or oily fish. It can be uncorked at the moment if served in large glasses, with a wide mouth and good height.
