Artists Label
The mountain with brown hair looks placidly at its brother sea. Until one day the earth opens wide, thunder echoes in the air and it explodes from the bowels of the earth to the tip of her hair that has become smoke and incandescent lapilli. The sea calmly looks at the furious sister. A volcano-goddess stands out on the Etna Bianco label of Donnafugata “Sul Vulcano ”. Its intense colors, reds, yellows, iridescent blacks, are those of the highest active volcano in Europe. An ancient, powerful and feminine divinity: "the Mountain" as Etna is called by the locals. “Sul Vulcano” is a declaration of love: a pure and lively wine, with a marked minerality, a wine that breathes the energy of this unique place located in the center of the Mediterranean.

The Rallo family has made wine in Marsala since 1851 and their ancient cellars tunnel beneath the city. They were one of the first families to begin making high quality table wine when sales of traditional Marsala started to decline, launching the Donnafugata label in 1983 and championing the potential of the region's native varieties. Today, Donnafugata has four estates in Sicily: a modern winery and 283 hectares at Contessa Entellina in the hills east of Marsala; 36 hectares in Vittoria to the south eastern point of the island; 68 hectares on the island of Pantelleria; and 18 hectares on the slopes of Etna. Donnafugata means 'fleeing woman' and is a reference to Queen Maria Carolina, who escaped the court of Naples in the early 19th century with her husband, Ferdinand IV of Bourbon, when Napoleon's troops arrived. The couple took refuge in Sicily at the Santa Margherita Belice palace, also the favourite residence of celebrated writer Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa and depicted on the 'Mille e una Notte' label.
