FLORIO

Florio Gran Chef Marsala Fine

Trust your Taste

Dried fruit and oak aromas lead to almond and liquorice flavours in this aromatic Marsala. Balanced and warming, it brings a savoury, nutty dimension to the finish. Try it if you enjoy fortified wines with more than simple fruit.

How this wine feels

This has a satisfying middle weight, little grip and a warming finish. Dried fruit shares the palate with almond and liquorice, giving it a distinctly savoury edge.

The sliders show how strongly each characteristic comes through. Higher does not mean better.
