  • 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.

  • Starboard Vintage 2006
    SWEET & APÉRITIF WINES STARBOARD VINTAGE 2006 History Andrew Quady started his winemaking career moonlighting and producing “port” style wines outside of his normal eight to five. Starboard Vintage 2006 is Quady’s latest vintage “port”, produced nearly three decades from that humble beginning. 2006 follows after a long line of renowned fortified wines produced at Quady Winery and showcases the qualities and craftmanship you’d expect to find from an experienced “port” wine producer. Why do we call our “port” Starboard? Port is a geographic term for fortified wines that come from the Douro River Valley in Portugal. Starboard, the nautical term for right, (as opposed to port – left) is unique to our place, the San Joaquin Valley, California, on the other side of the world from Portugal. Winemaking For Starboard, we use the same grape varieties and similar methods as in the Douro River Valley in Portugal, but our climate is warmer and the soils different. The vineyard is managed to give loose bunches and a small crop. Instead of 140 proof fortifying brandy, we use a neutral grape spirit of 190 proof. We use 60 gallon barrels instead of the 140 gallon pipes used in Portugal. Starboard matures earlier and has a riper more voluptuous flavor. Vintage 2006 spent the first two years of its life in a barrel and the remaining time maturing in its bottle. Taste Smells of cherries, vanilla bean and spices. Taste is smooth and velvety, but with brandy and grip, lingering tannins and exotic notes. Enjoy with chocolate, cheese, and nuts. Enjoy now or cellar it to enjoy sometime over the next 10+ years.
