Fortified

1–34 of 34

Fortified wine is a distinct category known for its higher alcohol concentration and exceptionally complex flavor profile. These wines are created by adding grape spirit to the juice or fermenting wine, which either halts fermentation to preserve natural sweetness or enhances the wine's longevity. Our assortment features the world’s most celebrated classic styles: velvety Portuguese Port, unique Spanish Sherry, and the heat-defying Madeira. Designed for slow sipping, these wines are prized for their unique notes of nuts, dried fruits, and exotic spices.

The Secret of Fortification: Craft and Aging

Fortified wines were originally born out of necessity—adding grape spirit helped the wine survive long sea voyages without spoiling. Today, this category is valued for its incredible diversity: from bone-dry, saline Fino Sherries to thick, luscious vintage Ports that can age in the bottle for decades.

World-Renowned Fortified Styles

  • Port: Produced in the Douro Valley, Portugal. While Ruby styles are known for their vibrant fruitiness, Tawny Ports offer complex notes of nuts, caramel, and spice developed through long oxidative aging in barrels.
  • Sherry (Jerez): A Spanish masterpiece from Andalusia. It utilizes the unique "solera" aging system, ranging in style from the ultra-dry Manzanilla to the intensely sweet and dark Pedro Ximénez.
  • Madeira: A wine that defies heat and oxygen. Due to a unique heating process (estufagem), Madeira possesses incredible stability and a signature profile of burnt sugar and dried fruits.
  • Marsala: A historic Sicilian wine used both in fine dining and as an elegant post-dinner digestif.

How to Enjoy Fortified Wine?

Due to their intense flavor and higher alcohol content (typically 15–22%), these wines are served in smaller portions in specialized glasses. Dry Sherries are best enjoyed well-chilled as an aperitif, while rich Ports are typically served at room temperature.

Food Pairing

Fortified wine is the ultimate companion for cheese. The pairing of blue cheese (like Stilton) with Port is one of the most famous gastronomic matches in the world. Dry Sherries pair perfectly with almonds, olives, or seafood. Sweeter varieties are a sublime match for dark chocolate desserts. Explore our snacks section for the perfect pairing.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does an opened bottle of fortified wine last?

Thanks to the higher alcohol content, these wines stay fresh much longer than standard table wines. An opened bottle of Port or Sherry, kept in the refrigerator, can maintain its quality for several weeks to a few months, depending on the specific style.

Is fortified wine a good gift?

It is one of the most prestigious gifts you can give. A Vintage Port or a decades-old Madeira carries significant collector value and is sure to delight any serious wine connoisseur.
