Florio was founded in 1832 when Vincenzo Florio bought land adjacent to that of Woodhouse, father and discoverer of Marsala. The early years were not easy: no profit and uncertain prospects put at risk the survival of the Florio winery. From 1855 efforts began to be repaid and the tenacity finally turned into success. Over the years, Florio become synonymous of great Marsala, one of the most popular fortified wines in the world. The decades of experience, combined with the perfect knowledge of the Sicilian territory, allow to produce bottles of great value, which still represents the best of Sicily and Italy. To savor the secular history and grandeur of a Marsala, the name Florio is an absolute guarantee, an indispensable trademark, a point of reference. Marsala, but not only: the Florio winery has specialized in the production of other Sicilian bottles, from Passito di Pantelleria to Moscato di Alessandria, passing from Grillo and even coming to grappa.
