A WINE THAT BEWITCHES
Moscato d'Alessandria, also known as Zibibbo (from the Arabic zabīb meaning dried grapes) is a grape synonymous with sweetness and warmth that has always been subject to passito or otherwise sweet interpretations, but in recent years some companies, including Donnafugata, have decided to make an interesting dry version. Very pleasant and very drinkable, it reveals an absolutely graceful elegance, whose bewitching, caressing aromas and flavors recall the love encounter between the professor and the mermaid Lighea from Tomasi di Lampedusa's tale, to whom this wine is dedicated.

Firm and bright straw yellow. Ripe white-fleshed fruit, pineapple, candied citrus, white rose, orange blossom, ginger and marine notes on the nose. Soft and velvety on the palate, savory and caressing it closes with pleasant citrine trail.

Perfect on white meats such as grilled chicken or with a lemon escalope, with herbed goat cheese and with fried or grilled mushrooms.

The Winery



To speak of Donnafugata, is to speak of wine Sicily, in the sense that this winery represents a true flagship of the entire Trinacria region.

The winery was founded in the 1980s, when Giacomo Rallo kicked off what represents the renaissance not only of the province of Trapani and the Marsala area, but probably of all of Southern Italy, together with his wife Gabriella, the author and inspirer of the revolutionary labels.

I'll be buying this again

I'm not usually a fan of white wine, but Lighea 2022 has completely changed my mind. The balance of flavors is perfect, and it pairs well with so many different dishes.
