  • Influence of Sweetness and Ethanol Content on Mead Acceptability
    Pol. J. Food Nutr. Sci., 2015, Vol. 65, No. 2, pp. 137–142 DOI: 10.1515/pjfns-2015-0006 http://journal.pan.olsztyn.pl Original article Section: Food Quality and Functionality Infl uence of Sweetness and Ethanol Content on Mead Acceptability Teresa Gomes, Teresa Dias, Vasco Cadavez, João Verdial, Jorge Sá Morais, Elsa Ramalhosa*, Letícia M. Estevinho Mountain Research Centre (CIMO), ESA - Polytechnic Institute of Bragança, Campus de Stª Apolónia, Apartado 1172, 5301–855 Bragança, Bragança, Portugal Key words: mead, sweetness, ethanol content, fermentations, sensory analysis Mead is a traditional alcoholic beverage obtained by fermenting mead wort; however, its production still remains frequently an empirical exercise. Different meads can be produced, depending on fermentation conditions. Nevertheless, to date few studies have been developed on factors that may infl uence mead quality. The main objective of this work was to study the infl uence of sweetness and ethanol content on mead acceptability. Different meads were produced with two sweetness levels (sweet and dry meads) and three ethanol contents (18, 20, 22% (v/v)), adjusted by brandy addition. Afterwards, meads acceptability was evaluated by sensory analysis through a consumers’ panel (n=108) along with chemical analysis by HPLC-RID of glucose, fructose, ethanol, glycerol and acetic acid. The sweet (75 gglucose+fructose/L) and dry (23 gglucose+fructose/L) meads presented glycerol contents equal to 5.10±0.54 and 5.96±0.95 g/L, respectively, that were desirable since glycerol improves mead quality. Low concentrations of acetic acid were determined (0.46±0.08 and 0.57±0.09 g/L), avoiding the vinegar off-character.

  • Tutored Wine Tasting
    Tutored Wine Tasting PORT Speaker: Eric LAGRE Sommelier Port is the classic fortified wine from the Douro, the name of which derives from Oporto (Porto), the second largest city in Portugal, whence the wine has been shipped for over 300 years. Remains of stone troughs for the fermentation of foot-trodden grapes dating back to at least the 3 rd and 4 th centuries can be found throughout the Douro Valley, upstream from Oporto. But the denomination “Porto/Port”, however, only appeared during the second half of the 17 th century, coinciding with a boom in viticulture and wine export initiated by English merchants. Port has actually often been described as the archetypal wine of the British, and the reason for that is not difficult to discover: Port was created by the British for the British market. HISTORY The 1386 Treaty of Windsor was the first of a series of treaties to build strong and active links between Portuguese coastal cities and London. By the time of the reign of Henry VII, the English had established businesses and trade associations benefiting from certain diplomatic privileges in the ports of Lisbon, Oporto, and most importantly, as far as the wine trade was concerned, Viana do Castelo, in the Minho, right to the north of the county. Portuguese wines were often traded for woollen goods from England or dried, salted cod from Newfoundland, bacalhau thus becoming a staple of Portuguese cuisine. Since the thin and astringent Vinho Verde of the Minho was not a wine to the liking of the English consumer, English merchants would rely on Portugal only when needed, mostly because it was the easiest option in terms of shipment.

  • Port Wine: Production and Ageing Juliana Milheiro, Fernanda Cosme, Luís Filipe-Ribeiro and Fernando M
    Chapter Port Wine: Production and Ageing Juliana Milheiro, Fernanda Cosme, Luís Filipe-Ribeiro and Fernando M. Nunes Abstract Port wine is a traditional and worldwide renowned fortified wine produced in the Douro Demarcated Region (DDR) Northeast of Portugal by specific and tradi- tional winemaking practices. The final quality and uniqueness of the different Port wine styles are highly dependent on the ageing process, namely time, temperature and oxygen levels that will ultimately dictate the type and extension of the chemical changes that occur during this process. These chemical changes occurring during the Port wine ageing process results in significant changes in colour and aroma according to the different ageing conditions employed for the different Port wine styles. This chapter intends to give a broad and generic overview of the known and potential chemical changes occurring during ageing of Port wine that are respon- sible for the changes in the sensory profile observed during the ageing process. Also, the known chromatic and aromatic characteristics of the different Port wine styles and the specific ageing processes, reductive or oxidative, are reviewed. Keywords: Port wine, Douro Demarcated Region, ageing process, colour, aroma 1. Introduction Port wine is a traditional fortified wine produced in the Douro Demarcated Region (Northeast of Portugal in the Douro Valley, Figure 1) under very specific conditions. There are several Port wine styles being related to the winemaking and ageing process and also to the ageing time, which enhances uniqueness to the wines and recognition throughout the world. The Douro Demarcated Region is located within the Douro River basin, surrounded by mountains, having a total area of approximately 250,000 hectares.

In 1914, the last normal year, before the war and prohibition, while France was consuming 32 gallons per person, Italy 25, and Spain 18.5, the per capita wine consumption of the United States was less than one-half gallon. It has been said that many more people in the United States are wine-drinkers now because prohibition did not forbid wine making in homes and, that given ten more years of prohibition enforcement we would have become prolific users of wine. If this is only partially true, United States wineries and importers will find our people increasingly good customers when prohibition is repealed, and it seems probable that a sizable volume of newspaper advertising will gradually deve lop.

  • Making Port Wine
    Making Port Wine Authentic red port may be made from many grapes, mainly Tinta Barroca, Tina Cao, Bastardo, Tempranillo and others. In California Zinfandel or even Syrah make fine ports. The technique below is universal, and may produce a Ruby port (aged in steel, glass or oak for two to 4 years), or a Tawny port (aged in oak, without topping for several years). Tawny port will lose color and may be blended with other ports to suit the winemaker. Technique: 1. Harvest late at an elevated brix (26 to 30 will do). This is to augment the short primary fermentation time and to maximize the fruit’s natural alcohol production. Fruit should be overripe, but no raisins. 2. Aerate the must well prior to and during inoculation. Choose the yeast carefully; select a yeast that is easy to kill with alcohol. Consider reducing yeast nutrients. Sulfite as normal. But bear in mind that the late harvest fruit is probably at a high pH which can will greatly reduce the effectiveness of sulfites. Color extraction can be a problem, so consider cold soaking (after sulfiting) and/or supplementing the must with OptiRED or pectic enzyme. 3. At 10 to 12 brix, juice should be at 9.5 to 10.5% abv (Alcohol by Volume). Once the juice reaches the target brix; say 11°, fortify the must or juice per formula below. Final alcohol content fo the finished port should be 18.5 to 20% abv. 4. Fortify with grape neutral spirits (GNS) at 190-proof (95% abv), or use aged or unaged brandy at 140-proof (70% abv) or above.

  • Port Wine: a Fashionable Cocktail Drink?
    Port Wine: a fashionable cocktail drink? A cluster’s marketing and branding approach Pedro Mariz Dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of MSc in Business Administration, at Universidade Católica Portuguesa, September 2015 Abstract Title: Port Wine: Port Wine: a fashionable cocktail drink? A cluster’s marketing and branding approach Author: Pedro Maria Gorjão Machado de Melo Mariz Founded in 1933, the Douro and Port Wines Institute (Instituto de Vinhos do Douro e Porto – IVDP), is the most relevant governmental institution on what concerns the Port wine industry regulation, control and promotion. Worldwide recognized and awarded by its quality, Port wine is a fortified wine that can only be produced in the Douro Demarcated Region, the oldest in the world. With such a distinguished competitive advantage, the Port wine cluster has underperformed in the recent past, by failing to change the people’s perception of Port as a “boring old-man’s drink”, only to be drank at special occasions. At the same time, the alcoholic beverages industry, has been seeing some innovations that Port wine’s competitors have been taking advantage of. Drinks like Gin, Licor Beirão, Caipirinha or Martini, have been leading the way in marketing strategies innovation, and by doing so, have achieved a competitive advantage over Port wine. In this case is studied how IVDP can use its governmental institution powers, in the Port wine cluster, to bring Port back into fashion. It will be done by analyzing the alcoholic beverages industry trends, Port’s competitors and how the cluster functionalities can be used in order to face the upcoming challenges, and to take advantage of the market opportunities.

  • Fortified Wine Production
    BEGINNER FORTIFIED WINE PRODUCTION Content contributed by Kimberly Bricker, Imperial Beverage Material contained in this document applies to multiple course levels. Reference your syllabus to determine specific areas of study. Wine was originally fortified, or strengthened, to better sustain itself during the journey to those importing it. The addition of brandy or neutral grape spirit would kill off the yeasts, which are constantly in the process of converting sugars to alcohol. Once the alcohol by volume reaches 16-18%, yeasts die. The remaining sugars are never converted into alcohol, and the natural sugars of the wine persist. Wines can be fortified at various stages in their fermentation, sweetened or colored with a variety of techniques. Different grape varietals can be used. Grapes can be dried. Wines can be boiled and reduced, cooked, aged in a solera, or aged in a boat that travels halfway across the world and back. They can be enjoyed immediately or aged for over 200 years. Port, Sherry, Madeira, Marsala, Malaga, Montilla-Moriles, and Vin Doux Naturels (VDN’s) are all Fortified Wines. Most people think of stuffy British old men drinking out of little glasses in a mahogany Sherry library with their pinkies out when they “Oh I must’ve been a dreamer think of Sherry- if they think of Sherry. And I must’ve been someone else While that image may have relegated Sherry, as an old-fashioned wine, to the And we should’ve been over back of the cool class, that is only part of Oh Sherry, our love the picture. Both Christopher Columbus Holds on, holds on…” and Ferdinand Magellan filled their ships ‘Oh Sherry’ by Steve Perry with Sherry when they set sail to discover the New World.

This region is situated in the northeast of Portugal, in the Douro hydrographical basin, surrounded by mountains that give it exclusive mesologic, climacteric and agrologic characteristics that enable the production of quality wines. Port wine is the most successful of all Portuguese wines throughout the years, home and abroad. This article aims at characterizing and analysing the positioning of the Port Wine brand in the context of Portuguese wine brands, and to define strategies for this brand. In order to achieve this, indicators and management tools such as SWOT Analysis, General Electric/McKinsey Matrix and Porter Generic Strategies were used. From the analysis it can be understood that the Port Wine brand occupies a favourable position in the wine market with an important role in the national economy, and as such it should be ever more promoted and its potential further reinforced abroad to make the most of its brand value and potential for the brand, the country and other national wines.

The eldest son of the 7th generation of the Sandeman family, who began trading in Portos and Sherries in 1790, the traditions and heritage of the making of Porto and Sherry have been on both sides of his family for generations (his mother is from the Sherry producing Valdespino family). This background instilled a love for the wines of Portugal and Spain, and he began his apprenticeship in the wine business in 1971. He worked in Oporto, Portugal, and Jerez, Spain, as well as several different wine companies before joining The House of Sandeman in London in 1977. In 1980, Sandeman became part of the Seagram Company and George joined the Marketing Division of The Seagram Wine Company in New York. In 1984, he became Brand Manager for Sterling Vineyards and The Monterey Vineyard California wines at The Seagram Classics Wine Company. He was subsequently promoted to the position of Vice President Marketing at Seagram Chateau and Estate Wine Company, in New York. In 1990, he was appointed General Manager for The House of Sandeman and in 1991 became Chairman following the retirement of his father, Mr. David Sandeman. In 2002, following the acquisition of The House of Sandeman by Sogrape Vinhos, George joined the Board of the Company with responsibility for Sogrape International Sales, as well as setting up the new area of Institutional Representation in the wine forum.

  • Trade and Terroir. the Political Economy of the World's First Geographical Indications
    Trade and Terroir. The Political Economy of the World’s First Geographical Indications Giulia Meloni 1,2 and Johan Swinnen 1,2,3 1 LICOS Center for Institutions and Economic Performance & Department of Economics University of Leuven (KU Leuven) 2 Centre for European Policy Studies 3 Robert Schuman Centre for Advanced Studies European University Institute Version: August 10, 2018 Abstract The world’s first geographical indications (GIs) were in the wine sector and focused on the delineation of the location of production, the ‘terroirs’: the Burgundy wines in the fifteenth century, the Port wines and Chianti wines in the eighteenth century, and the Champagne wines in the early twentieth century. We analyze the causes for the introduction of these GIs (‘terroirs’) and for changes in their delineation (expansion) later on. Trade played a very important role in the creation of the ‘terroirs’ but the mechanisms through which trade stimulated GIs varied. For the Port and Chianti GIs it was exports to foreign markets (Britain) that were crucial; for Burgundy it was domestic trade to Paris; and for the Champagne GI it was not exports but pressure from wine imports and new wine regions that played a crucial role. For the expansions of the GIs later in history, other factors seem to have been more important. Expansions of the GIs in the years and centuries after their introduction followed (1) major changes in political power; (2) the spread of a new philosophy in liberal and free markets across Europe; (3) and infrastructure investments which opened up markets and made exports cheaper from “new” producers.

  • Sandeman 'Late Bottled Vintage' 2013 Port
    Sandeman ‘Late Bottled Vintage’ 2013 Port Grape Varietals: 45% Touriga Franca, 30% Tinta Roriz & 25% Touriga Nacional Growing Region: Douro Valley, DOC Porto, Portugal Chief Winemaker: Luís Sottomayor The 2013 vintage in the Douro was a challenge with testing conditions at both the start and end of the growing season. But when the team did get into the vineyards to pick, the grapes had good balance and flavour development. And the grapes were at the standard and quality Luís demands to craft this LBV style Port wine. As after soft-crushing and partial destemming - maceration took place via foot-treading in granite lagares. Then at the start of alcoholic fermentation, when at balance. The partial wine and juice was pumped in stainless steel tanks at a set temperature, in order to extract the inherent qualities from the grape skins. The wine's balance and harmony, as well as its body and structure, result from the selection of indigenous grapes and the key moment to end the fermentation and add grape spirit to the desired strength. Sandeman are well known for carefully selecting and blended high quality fruit parcels to create a strong, full-bodied and character filled style of Late Bottled Vintage Port - while maintaining the style of a single-vintage wine. The wine then remained in the Douro until the following spring - when it was transferred to Vila Nova de Gaia where it matured in traditional oak casks. During this period, it was subject to periodic racking, and various tasting and analysis to monitor its development. The final blend was made after a rigorous selection process, using only wines befitting the quality and style of Sandeman’s LBV.
