Ferreira Port White

Tasting Notes

Porto Ferreira White has an appealing yellow-straw hue and a fresh but intense aroma, with attractive floral and fruit tones. Soft and very well balanced in the mouth, it is a rich and full wine, with added complexity and nobility deriving from careful ageing in wood.

Varieties

Technical Notes

Porto Ferreira White is vinified using the traditional Porto Wine method. Hand-picked grapes are softly crushed and, after partial stalk-removal, fermented with maceration allowing the best components of the grape skins to be extracted. The whole process takes place under strict control of both temperature and wine density, making it possible for the winemaker to choose the ideal moment for the addition of wine alcohol, fundamental to halt fermentation and keep Porto Wine natural sweetness. That moment depends on vine varieties, stage of maturation and final sweetness levels required.

Food Pairing

Served chilled, on its own or accompanying nuts and toasted almonds, Porto Ferreira White makes an ideal aperitif. For a highly refreshing option, full of flavor, try a Ferreira Tonic.
