Vinification of the White Port from Conde de Monsul

The grapes for the White Port from Conde de Monsul come from sun-kissed vineyards situated in sheltered locations, offering ideal ripening conditions through cool nights and warm days. The careful selection of white varieties guarantees a balanced interplay of fruit and freshness.

The harvest is done manually to ensure the grapes are picked intact and perfectly ripe. In the cellar, the grapes are gently pressed to preserve delicate aromas and fruity sweetness. The vinification then begins with a controlled fermentation at low temperatures, which retains the fresh notes and highlights the finesse of the white port.

The maturation takes place traditionally in stainless steel tanks and partly in large wooden casks, where the wine develops its characteristic depth and complexity. Gentle stirring of the yeast creates a fine mouthfeel as well as subtle nutty nuances. Additionally, the later addition of grape spirit imparts the typical port wine structure, resulting in a full-bodied taste with seductive sweetness and harmonious freshness.
