Winemaking
De Bortoli has an extensive collection of aged wines matuing in barrel. The winemakers draw from these barrels to blend our premium fortifi ed wines. A blend of vintages, fruit for this style is picked very ripe and the base wine is fermented to 10º Baumé then fortified to halt fermentation but retain the wine’s natural sweetness. The desired flavour profile was achieved by identifying the most suitable parcels of wine during fermentation and blending these back with aged tawny material which has been matured on oak.
