Maynard's Organic Pink Port is a unique and refreshing fortified wine that showcases the exceptional viticulture and winemaking practices of the Douro Valley. Crafted from organically farmed vineyards, this wine is committed to sustainable production and environmental stewardship. The grapes used for Maynard's Organic Pink Porto are primarily indigenous varieties, including Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz, and Tinto Cão. These grapes are meticulously harvested by hand, ensuring optimal ripeness and preserving their delicate flavors. Traditional winemaking techniques are employed in the cellar, focusing on organic practices throughout the production process. The grapes are gently pressed, and the resulting juice is fermented in stainless steel tanks. After fermentation, the wine is fortified with grape spirit to halt the fermentation process and preserve its sweetness. The unique pink color of Maynard's Organic Pink Porto is achieved through a careful blending process that combines red and white wines. This wine offers a refreshing and fruity profile with strawberries, raspberries, and citrus notes. The sweetness is balanced by a vibrant acidity, creating a harmonious and enjoyable drinking experience. Maynard's Organic Pink Porto is a versatile wine that can be enjoyed independently, as an aperitif, or paired with light desserts.
