Marsala Fine DOC from Cantine Pellegrino is an amber fortified wine that encapsulates all the warmth and intensity of Sicily. With an alcohol content of 17%, it is aged for at least one year in oak barrels, a process that gives it a complex and enveloping bouquet. The nose reveals clear notes of dried fruit, toasted almonds, and honey, enriched by a touch of vanilla and caramel. On the palate, it is smooth, balanced, and persistent. While it is historically known for its fundamental use in gourmet cooking and fine pastry (such as scaloppine or zabaglione), it is also excellent served chilled as a dessert wine or paired with blue cheeses and traditional dry pastries.

Ingredients

Grillo, Catarratto, and Inzolia grapes, wine alcohol, cooked must, sulfites.
