Marsala Superiore Rubino Dolce DOC Uncle Joseph 2015 Pellegrino

The Marsala Superiore Rubino Dolce Uncle Joseph is inspired by the entrepreneur Joseph, who reached his uncle Benjamin, in 1819, in Sicily, to collaborate in the production and distribution of marsala in the world, through their impressive fleet of sailing ships.

The basis of this Marsala is only the Nero d'Avola grape variety, harvested at an advanced ripeness in the Trapani countryside of Mazara del Vallo. The process begins with a cold maceration of the bunches, followed by a partial fermentation interrupted by the addition of wine brandy aged for at least 5 years in oak barrels. It is the result of 24 months aging in French Allier oak barrels.

Marsala of an intense ruby red color, it expresses itself on the nose on elegant fruity notes that recall black cherry, pomegranate and plum. On the palate it is sweet and fruity, with great balance.

Perfect to combine with dark chocolate made of at least 70% cocoa.
