Wine “Marquis de Granval”, Bordeaux AOC, 2018

Introduction

Messias, Porto Special Reserve – port, which has a spectacular, bright taste and a multifaceted bouquet. In its production, grape varieties such as Touriga Nacional, Touriga Francesa, Tinta Roriz and Tinta Barroc are used. They are grown in the Portuguese region of Douro.

The technology of making port is quite complicated. It provides fermentation at a strictly observed temperature regime (25-28 C), which is interrupted by the addition of brandy in order to obtain the necessary levels of strength and sugar. Then follows the seven-year exposure of the port in oak barrels before bottling.
