Dry Marsala is almost unknown in this country, which is a shame because it's a completely different proposition to the sweet versions most people associate with Italian cooking. This ten-year Riserva Secco from Curatolo Arini has concentrated notes of wild almond, sultana and orange peel, but the dry finish means it works as a serious aperitif or with salty, umami-rich food. The kind of wine you open once and find yourself returning to all evening.
With intense notes of wild almonds, dates, sultanas and vanilla, it is soft and elegant on the palate with a pleasant dried fruit and orange finish. Served slightly cool it is a perfect aperitif and it pairs perfectly with aged pecorino and fig jam, marzipan cakes or dark chocolate desserts.
Aged pecorino, fig jam, dark chocolate, marzipan cakes or on its own before a meal.
