Florio: the Sicilian soul between Marsala and dessert wines
The Florio collection gathers labels that tell the story of one of the most iconic realities of Sicilian winemaking. Founded in 1833, Florio is a historic name primarily associated with Marsala and dessert wines, expressions of a productive knowledge that combines tradition, territory, and artisanal care.
This selection is ideal for those seeking wines with an intense, rich, and persistent profile, capable of accompanying a fine meal or offering a meditative tasting experience. From the complexity of Marsala Superiore DOC Riserva Vergine 1963 Florio to the aromatic elegance of Malvasia delle Lipari and Passito di Pantelleria, up to Morsi di Luce IGT Sicilia, the collection enhances the most prestigious and identity-driven aspects of Sicilian production.
A repertoire of sweet and fortified wines with great personality
Florio wines stand out for their structure, aromatic depth, and great versatility at the table. Marsala represents the heart of the winery, with a style that expresses complexity, maturity, and a long tradition linked to the wine culture in Western Sicily. Alongside this great classic, the dessert wines in the selection bring to the forefront the richness of Mediterranean aromas, balanced sweetness, and a pleasant tasting intensity.
These are wines to choose when you desire a sip that leaves a mark: perfect as a conclusion to an important meal, but also paired with blue cheeses, dry pastries, fruit tarts, almond sweets, or structured desserts. The Florio labels are also suited for slow tasting, thanks to a profile that invites you to capture nuances, evolution, and persistence.
