Marsala dolce Superiore, balanced and pleasant, an oenological synthesis of a journey through oak woods of multiple shapes and sizes of the Florio Wineries. A migration, orchestrated by the refined art of the Oenologist, which gives it harmony and unforgettable energy.

The Marsala SD1217, with its amber color, offers an exercise in contemporary organoleptic style. With warm aromas of dates and apples, to a palate of ripe grapes, this Marsala Florio is an excellent pairing with desserts and dry pastries, but above all it is the perfect companion for dark chocolate.

2016 HARVEST: Manual harvest, starting from mid-September, of over-ripe grapes on the plant, to build a grape with a high and mature sugar and polyphenolic heritage

VINIFICATION: Energetic extraction forces come into play through the use of the traditional press to create musts full of 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 start the first "act of giving DOC Marsala"

FALLING IN LOVE: Encounter between wine, siphon (grape must capable of giving DOC Marsala mutated - that is, whose fermentation has been blocked - added with ethyl alcohol of viticultural origin), cooked must and a small percentage of alcohol
