International experience, constancy and an intuition attuned to the trends on the most demanding wine markets are the traits for which Giacomo Rallo, Donnafugata’s founder, is best known.
The starting point: construction of an enterprise capable of developing in Sicily a productive and cultural project that promotes the identity of the territory and is able to assimilate the best of modern technology and enological science.
It is a passion that still animates Giacomo with the enthusiasm of the first day.

Three generations of a family that in the time has renewed one common passion, that one for the own origins and the own land.
In the 1940, Leonardo Minardi, passionate of viticultura and enology, begins to produce own wines.
Today his son Andrea with the same passion selects accurately the best grapes of Zibibbo, in order to produce his Typical Wines of Pantelleria.
Like taught from Leonardo, still today this job for Andrea and its family passion is first of all one; and their main objective is to produce quality wine in the full respect of the methods of vinification of the Zibibbo grape (Moscatellone) traditionally used in the island of Pantelleria.
