Moderate and well-distributed rainfall allowed for healthy and concentrated bunches, giving \u003cem\u003eAngheli 2021\u003c\/em\u003e freshness and intense fruity notes.

A further period in the bottle completes the aromatic evolution before commercialization.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSicilia Rosso DOC 'Angheli' 2021 - Donnafugata is a fascinating wine, rich in aromas and sensations that evolve in the glass, telling its international soul and the unique character of the Sicilian terroir.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eColor\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt presents a \u003cstrong\u003edeep, luminous ruby red\u003c\/strong\u003e, with violet nuances that reveal its youth and vivacity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eNose\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the nose, it offers a broad and enveloping bouquet: notes of ripe red fruits, cherry, and plum intertwine with spicy hints of vanilla, cocoa, and sweet tobacco.
