Florio Marsala Semisecco Superiore Riserva 2001 - 750ml

95pts Wine Enthusiast

One of the reasons I love Marsala so much is because, by virtue of existing outside of the bounds of table wine, it has already broken the rules, and so the flood gates are open--enjoy it however you want, play, experiment, innovate. But with the 2001 let me suggest that you do nothing. Pour it neat. Take a sip. Let your mind expand.

Intensely sweet and complex with walnuts, roasted almonds, hazelnut, espresso, curry powder, roasted pumpkin and baking spice, long and persistent

Winemaker Notes

The dry, persistent tannin and flavors of licorice, nougat and bitter cocoa are accompanied by aromas of fruit in spirits and chestnut, testifying to an evident and complex evolution, the child of a long life in oak barrels.
