Marsala Virgin Wine 1999 D.O.M to Accompany with Spicy Food, Ham and Cheese (19% Vol.)

Marsala is a historic fortified wine. It was invented by a British merchant (John Woodhouse) in 1773 who was able to export it all over the world thanks to his relations with Admiral Nelson, who bought large quantities for his fleet. Later, it also became one of the first Italian denominations.

It is a Sicilian wine characterized by the oxidative scent obtained thanks to its long aging in large oak barrels of at least 10,000 L (can be visited in the cellar). In this process part of the wine evaporates year after year, and small quantities of air enter the barrel giving its characteristic aroma.
