Pellegrino Marsala Uncle Joseph Superiore Rubino Dolce 0.75L

Product information "Pellegrino Marsala Uncle Joseph Superiore Rubino Dolce 0.75L"

This Marsala is dedicated to the English businessman Joseph, who joined his uncle Benjamin in Marsala, Sicily, in 1819 to produce Marsala wines and distribute them worldwide thanks to his impressive fleet of sailing ships. The clay soils of the Marsala and Mazara del Vallo region, situated just a few meters above sea level, with a Mediterranean climate (mild winters, little rain, and very hot and windy summers), offer ideal conditions for cultivating the Nero d'Avola grape variety. The grapes are harvested from mid-September onwards, just before they reach full ripeness, and then undergo cold maceration. The fermentation process is partially interrupted by the addition of brandy aged for approximately five years in oak barrels. Cantine Pellegrino Marsala Uncle Joseph Superiore Rubino Dolce then matures for two years in selected Allier oak barrels, resulting in a deep ruby-red color. Extremely fruity on the nose, with notes of black cherries, pomegranates, and plums. Sweet on the palate, with distinct notes of red berries, cherries, marasca cherries, and pomegranates. Pairs wonderfully with dark chocolate with at least 70% cocoa content.
