Quinta De S. Francisco Fortificado

Description

This port from Quinta de S. Francisco is a delightfully audacious creation – a cheeky injection of vínica brandy mid-fermentation, you see. The consequence? A hefty alcohol level flirting with 18-21%, beautifully balanced between fresh fruit and the subtle nuances of barrel ageing (a mix of French and national oak, naturally). And, of course, that gold medal from the AWC Vienna 2017 confirms it: sometimes, tradition and innovation simply *work*. Perfect with a mature, firm cheese or a handful of dried fruit, wouldn’t you agree?
