Francesco Intorcia's declared aim is to make Marsala to be drunk with food. Intense, extremely complex, with balsamic notes and sweet and elegant aromas that hint towards smoked caramel,honey, apricots, dried figs, candied orange peel and toasted walnuts. On the palate, it is full, soft and sweet, with great persistence and structure. A wine of great balance.
In 2010 Francesco Intorcia took his family owned business, which had been founded in 1930 and has its cellars in the very heart of Marsala, to an altogether higher level. With his father Antonio’s enthusiastic support, he decided to create a range of super premium wines. He left the choice of their first offering to the older man, who selected three vats of the 1980 vintage: Vergine, Dolce and Semisecco. Francesco also chose to concentrate future production of these craft Marsala on the best five hectares of their fifty-hectare estate. The wines from the very heart of the Intorcia vineyards carry the proud name ‘HERITAGE’.
