A Golden Ode to Rome’s Sunlight.
Donnaluce is more than just a wine — it’s a love letter to Lazio’s golden afternoons, where the sun bathes the vineyards in warm light and the Mediterranean breeze carries whispers of wildflowers. Crafted from Malvasia, Greco, and Bombino grapes, this luxurious white captures the elegance of central Italy with a richness that lingers long after the last sip.
The grapes are harvested at peak ripeness, preserving their natural sweetness and aromatic intensity. A touch of oak ageing adds depth and creaminess, making Donnaluce a rare example of an Italian white with both opulence and freshness. On the palate, it’s a symphony of ripe tropical fruit, candied citrus peel, vanilla, and delicate floral notes. For wine lovers in Ireland, it’s a revelation — the kind of white that can rival fine Burgundy in elegance while still radiating Italian soul.
Why we love it:
Donnaluce is indulgent yet approachable — perfect for moments when you want a white wine that truly makes a statement. It’s the bottle you open when you want to impress, whether you’re pairing it with seafood, roast chicken, or simply enjoying it with friends who appreciate a touch of luxury in their glass. Its richness makes it a perfect winter white in Ireland, yet its sun-kissed character shines beautifully in summer too.
