TYPE: Fortified Wine CLASSIFICATION: DOC Marsala Superiore Dolce YEAR OF FORTIFICATION: 2017 HARVEST: Manual harvest, from mid-September, of over-ripened grapes on the vine, to build a grape with a high and ripe sugar and polyphenol content VINIFICATION: Energetic extraction forces come into play through the use of the traditional wine press to create musts loaded with colour, high dry extracts and extreme marine flavour. Fermentation in cement, punctuated by continuous micro-oxygenation, which continues into post-fermentation, preparing the wine for the encounter with alcohol, to initiate the first 'act of giving DOC Marsala'. INNAMORATION: Encounter between wine, siphon (grape must giving DOC Marsala mutated - i.e. whose fermentation has been stopped - added with ethyl alcohol of vine origin), cooked must and a small percentage of alcohol AGING METHOD: 4 years. A well-balanced and pleasant Marsala, the oenological synthesis of a journey among oak woods of many shapes and sizes in the greatness of the Florio Cellars ALCOHOL CONTENT: 18% vol (36 PROOF) SUGAR CONTENT: 108 g/l ANGEL'S SHARE: 7% SERVING TEMPERATURE: 14° - 16°C GASTRONOMIC MATCHES: Dark chocolate METHOD OF STORAGE: In a cool, not excessively humid place, protected from light DURATION: Marsala that, if stored in suitable cellars, has practically no time limits NUMBER OF BOTTLES PRODUCED: 13.833
