Tancredi Donnafugata

Tancredi 2018 Dolce & Gabbana and Donnafugata - Limited Edition

Tancredi is Donnafugata's historic red wine born in 1990, inspired by the protagonist of the Gattopardo and known for its Mediterranean elegance and its noble and revolutionary soul. With the Tancredi 2018 "Dolce & Gabbana and Donnafugata" we propose the reinterpretation that these two ambassadors of Made in Italy and Sicilian culture have created, united by unconditional love for Sicily, a passion for work and attention to detail.

Blend mainly of Cabernet Sauvignon and Nero d'Avola, Tancredi embodies the contrast between tradition and modernity, even in the image curated by Dolce and Gabbana: gold, blue and sinuous lines celebrate the splendor of the aristocracy now in decline; the red, green and pointed geometric figures refer to the new revolutionary values ​​that are affirming themselves in Sicily after the unification of Italy and which are a prelude to the contemporary history of the island.

Great gift idea if you want to amaze with taste, creativity and craftsmanship!
