The early years were not easy: no profits and uncertain prospects endangered the survival of the cellar. From 1855 the efforts began to be rewarded and tenacity finally turned into success.
Over the years, Florio became synonymous with quality Marsala, one of the most popular liqueur wines around the world. The experience of decades, coupled with the perfect knowledge of the Sicilian territory, allows for the production of high quality bottles, which still represent Sicily and Italy.
To enjoy the secular history and the grandeur of a Marsala, the Florio name is an absolute guarantee, an indispensable mark, a point of reference. Not only Marsala: the Florio cellar specializes in the production of other typically Sicilian bottles, such a the Passito of Pantelleria, Moscato di Alessandria, passing through Grillo and even grappa.
