The must is then fermented by wild yeasts at temperatures ranging from 20-25°C, and spirit is then added at the appropriate time to stop fermentation. At the end of the maceration the ferments are drained, pressed, and transferred to old port casks to undergo maturation, before eventual blending and bottling. As with all ports, blending is the key and we use a variety of aged parcels, with different levels of sweetness and acidity including a small proportion of some really old barrels (at least 40 years old). The aim is to deliver an elegant, complex Ten-Year-Old Tawny style where the sweetness takes a back seat and the Pedra Alta acidity provides the focus. This is the first Ten-Year-Old produced on the estate and is a fitting tribute to the positive impact João has had on the estate since he started in 2009.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eServe slightly chilled as an aperitif and as a perfect accompaniment to chocolate desserts or strong cheese.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Givino","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49078701359434,"sku":"5600212721035","price":27.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0842\/4747\/8602\/files\/qdpa10.png?v=1746616275"},{"product_id":"niepoort-trudy-port","title":"Niepoort 'Trudy' Port N.V.","description":"\u003cp\u003eNat Cool is naturally “cool and funky”.

Three hectares were set aside for Syrah, on shale-derived Glenrosa soil. These soils are normally the hallmark of warmer areas, but these vines nestle against the Klein River Mountain range, which combined with the nearby Akkedis Valley, provide a portal through which the cool sea breezes from the Walker Bay penetrate, creating a mild meso-climate in summer.

The Dijon clone CY95 vines thrive in this warm Mediterranean climate, which is tempered by the Atlantic Ocean and the nearby Duivenhoks River.

An unusually cool December slowed ripening, while January rains during véraison nourished the soils encouraging grape ripening.
