The story behind it

The maker

Founded in 1874 by Pietro Pastene, the Pastene brand began as a humble cart operation in Boston's North End, importing Italian specialty goods. Over 150 years later, the family-rooted company has become a household name, connecting American kitchens to authentic Mediterranean and Italian culinary traditions.

How it is made

Marsala is a historic fortified wine native to the region surrounding the Italian city of Marsala in Sicily. It is produced using traditional white grape varietals such as Catarratto, Grillo, and Inzolia, then fortified to achieve its robust strength.
