Aged since 2004 in a single barrel inside the Florio Winery, this Marsala Vergine is a child of the wind sea. The Mediterranean gives it lingering savory sensations combined with long, vibrant tannins that awaken the palate and captivate it. The aromas are spicy and vertical, with notes of roasted peanuts and cereals, and the color is warm, gold that tastes of light and sunshine.

WINEMAKING
Energetic extraction forces come into play through the use of the traditional press to create musts loaded with color, high dry extracts and extreme marine flavor. Fermentations in cement, punctuated by continuous micro-oxygenations, which continue even in post-fermentation, preparing the wine for the encounter with alcohol, to initiate the first “act of giving DOC Marsala”
