Osborne Vintage Port is made from a blend of indigenous Port varieties like Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Touriga Cao and Tinta Roriz. This mountainous region is marked by hot, dry summers producing grapes with ripe, jammy fruit and high sugar levels. After harvesting, the grapes are quickly crushed with a focus on heavy extraction to create deeply colored and highly tannic wines. Grapes spirit is added during the fermentation which means residual sugar is left in the wine. The sweet, fortified wine is then aged for two years in neutral oak prior to being bottled.
