Marsala Superiore Oro DOC Vigna Miccia (5 years) 50cl, Marco De Bartoli, Sicily
Marsala
Tastes like: Lemon Zest. Tangerine. Vanilla. Creamy. Hazelnut. Almond. Dried Fruit. Fresh yet Concentrated.
It's the island which gave us Archimedes, Mount Etna and the Mafiosi... Sicily is renowned as the home of some rather notable things - and Marsala wine should undoubtedly be one if its greatest wonders.
Like Sherry, Port and Madeira this fortified wine has become a tad under-rated in recent decades but this tipple is a case in point of how phenomenal Marsala can be.
Immensely concentrated yet still brimming with freshness, this wine is made from 100% Grillo grapes and is aged for 5 years.
