What is Fortified Wine?

Fortified wine (also known as dessert wine) is a wine that has a distilled spirit added to it. Distilled spirits like Brandy are added at different points of the fermentation process. This boosts the alcohol content and gives the final product its flavour.

Liquor Legends' Fortified Wine range includes:

• Port Wine

• Sherry

• Madeira

• Marsala

• Vermouth

Liquor Legends has a wide range of Fortified Wines, so there is something for everyone. You can shop in-store and online, click & collect and delivery is available! All Liquor Legends venues are independently owned and stock availability varies, so make sure you call ahead to avoid disappointment.

What are the common tasting notes of Fortified Wine?

Fortified wine can either be dry or sweet. But more commonly, Fortified wine has a taste of sweet, dark, heavy and sticky. But it is also packed with flavours full of rich, spicy, caramel-like flavours. It usually depends on which Fortified wine you go with.

How to pair Fortified wine

Despite the range of Fortified wines, it isn't too hard to pair them with something delicious. Because it is also known as a dessert wine, you can enjoy a bottle with your dessert. Match with cakes, chocolates and other baked goods. Be a little bit extra with your sense of taste and pair it with some chocolate-covered strawberries.

Fortified wines also pair well with savoury foods such as potato chips, olives and nuts. Even go as far as pairing it with some pork belly, brisket, pulled pork sliders or Peking duck.
