In 2005, ZMV created a new style of port that tastes more like liqueur than a port. It has been a HUGE success ever since. It is rich, fruity, and full-flavored with zing. Our port is a dessert wine made for sipping after dinner or even poured over ice cream, either chocolate or vanilla. You could also try it with blue cheese. The grapes were picked at 29% brix, grape brandy was added at 13% sugar and fermentation stopped at 6.5%. It is a vintage port as it was all made of 2005 harvest. If you like a lot of fruit in your dessert wine you will love our port.
