VINI LIQUOROSI

Fortified wine is a special type of wine produced by adding alcohol in the form of must, mistella, or brandy to increase its alcohol content. In our online wine shop, you will find the best Italian and international fortified wines, from the great Port wines to Marsala and Sherry. The history of fortified wines is closely linked to that of the wine trade: to preserve wine during sea voyages, merchants, especially English ones, resorted to the practice of fortification (which is why they are also called fortified wines) by adding alcohol in various forms. Fortified wines are generally very well suited to aging, have an alcohol content of between 15 and 22% and a high sugar concentration: these factors contribute to their unmistakable organoleptic characteristics, such as the aromas of dried fruit, typical of sweet wine, and a great structure. Fortified wines are meditation wines, perfect with dry pastries, blue cheeses, and chocolate. Choose your favorite fortified wine from our selection.
