Marsala DOC 375ml - Superiore Riserva Dolce 1939 - Florio represents a masterpiece of Sicilian winemaking art, produced in the historic Marsala area, in the province of Trapani. Made mainly with Grillo, Catarratto, and Inzolia grapes, this wine is distinguished by the long aging that accompanies each vintage, giving it a unique complexity and depth. The term “Riserva” emphasizes the minimum aging period, while “Dolce” indicates its balanced sweetness, typical of Marsala fortified wines.



In the glass, it presents an intense amber color, enriched with golden reflections, while on the nose it offers a rich bouquet of dried fruit, honey, and vanilla notes, accompanied by delicate spicy hints. On the palate, it is soft, enveloping, and persistent, with a perfect balance between sweetness and acidity that makes it ideal to accompany elaborate desserts such as dry pastries, but also blue cheeses or foie gras.



An authentic expression of the territory and Sicilian winemaking tradition that enchants with elegance and character.
