Organoleptic properties
A 2004 Marsala Vergine Riserva aged in a single cask at the Florio Wine Cellars. A Marsala wine with a golden hue, heavily influenced by the sea and with a lingering savoury sensation. Spicy, linear aromas with notes of roasted peanuts and grains. Perfect as an aperitif or throughout a meal, it is excellent paired with savoury and flavourful ingredients.

Storage Tips
Marsala Florio bottles historically use the classic “bar top” cap, it is therefore recommended to store the bottles in a vertical position.
