Label: Marchese di Bonfi

In the Marsala Martinez range, the taste of the Marsala Superiore Secco lies between the driest Marsala Vergine and the Superiore Dolce. Alcohol and mistelle, an element responsible for the balance and smoothness of this kind of Marsala, are added to the wine during the concia process, which is the stage when the type of Marsala being produced is defned. The ageing process then begins in oak casks where the wine is in contact with the air for a number of years, developing its characteristic oxidative bouquet.

Shelf Life and Storage Method:

If stored away from heat and light sources, the wine will keep for an unlimited period and will continue to improve over time. After being opened, if the bottle is sealed again using a bottle stopper and stored in a dry place, away from heat and light sources, it will keep well for a number of months.

Vinification and Aging:

Hand-picked ripe grapes with high sugar level, soft pressing, fermentation and preparation of the concia, with the addition of mistelle and alcohol to the wine obtained. It is then aged for more than two years in oak casks of various sizes.
