The Cantine Florio Marsala Dry 2019 is a classic fortified wine that reflects the long-standing traditions of Sicily’s Marsala region. Established in 1833, Cantine Florio has been one of the defining names in Marsala production, known for crafting wines of depth, elegance, and authenticity. This dry style highlights Marsala’s savory side, offering complexity and finesse while staying true to its Mediterranean roots.

The bouquet opens with aromas of toasted nuts, dried fruit, and caramel, accented by hints of oak, spice, and a touch of sea breeze that speaks to its coastal origins. On the palate, it is dry, structured, and full of character, showcasing flavors of walnut, almond, and subtle citrus peel, layered with notes of vanilla and warm spice from barrel aging. The texture is smooth yet firm, and the finish is long, nutty, and delicately savory.

Traditionally enjoyed as an aperitif or paired with a wide variety of dishes, this Marsala Dry works beautifully with mature cheeses, shellfish, or mushroom-based dishes, and it can also be used to elevate classic recipes such as veal or chicken Marsala. The 2019 vintage from Cantine Florio is a testament to the estate’s craftsmanship, offering a versatile fortified wine that is both historic and timeless.
