Ageing
One of the secrets of quality marsala is ageing, which is why
Vecchioflorio ages in oak barrels of different capacities for at
least 24 months.
Food pairing
As an aperitif it goes well with medium aged cheeses. The exotic
scent of vanilla and licorice makes it the ideal accompaniment to
delicious desserts.
Serve as an aperitif 6 - 8C. For dessert and relaxation 14 - 16C.

Harvest
Manual harvest occurring after late ripening, usually around the 10th of September.
Tasting notes
Amber with bright shades of light caramel. Hints of raisins and vanilla on the nose. Warm and round with an elegant
background of dried fruit and raisins on the palate.
Vinification
Pressing of grapes with a higher sugar content to maintain the
skin contact with must. Fermentation occurs at a controlled
temperature to maintain the tannins and prepare the wine for the
addition of “mistellaâ€, cooked must and wine distillate.
