Burmester White - Port Wine

Burmester White Port is a white fortified wine from Portugal’s Porto and Douro region, crafted by Burmester using classic Douro grape varieties including Viosinho, Malvasia Fina, Verdelho and Rabigato. Made from a blend of different harvests, it is aged for at least three years, with part of the wine maturing in stainless steel and part in oak, adding both freshness and complexity.

The grapes are picked by hand once they have reached optimum ripeness, then destemmed, crushed and gently macerated. Fermentation is carried out in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks at 16–18°C, with regular stirring, until the desired sweetness is achieved. The process is then halted by the addition of grape spirit, creating the wine’s distinctive Port character.

This Burmester white Port offers an appealing balance of lively freshness, smooth sweetness and aromatic richness. The blend of traditional white Douro grapes gives the wine a rounded, elegant and versatile style, making it suitable for sipping on its own or enjoying with food.

Thanks to its bright and refreshing profile, Burmester White Port is an excellent match for dishes such as dried fig salad with ham or grilled sole with an almond crust.
