consistent long lasting styles. The must is fortified, either to arrest fermentation
for a Malmsey or a Bual, or later in the fermentation process, in the case of
Sercial or Verdelho before undergoing its own very special maturation. The
Canteiro process is employed for all 10 and 15 year old Madeiras from H&H
where the wine is heated naturally in barrels over some months to enhance
concentration and consistency of the wine. Malmsey produces a rich sweet style
whilst still exhibiting delicious mouthwatering acidity.

Its smooth, silky texture and subtle oak nuances are balanced by a fresh acidity

Chill to just below cellar temperature (about 10ºC). In summer, serve at the end
of the meal as a refreshing alternative or try as one of the few dessert wines to
match chocolateDuring the January following each vintage, Fonseca sets aside a reserve of very
concentrated, powerful vintage quality red ports, selected primarily from the firm’s
own quintas and judged according to their ageing potential. These are placed in cask
and cellared. Tawny ports of age are blended across several vintages to maintain
quality and continuity of style, and thus show an “apparent”, or average, age on the
label rather than a vintage date.
As tawny ports age, they grow lighter in colour, as they throw their deposit in
the cask rather than in the bottle. Moreover, Fonseca cellars its aged tawnies in
the Douro rather than in Vila Nova de Gaia; the considerable difference in heat
and humidity between these two areas lends Fonseca’s tawny ports of age a very
distinctive “baked” richness reminiscent of butterscotch.
