Process & Profile

Crafted in the illustrious Douro Valley of Northern Portugal, Delaforce Rosé Port is produced from premium grape varieties, including Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, and Tinta Roriz. Its bright pink hue is achieved through a meticulous winemaking process where the grape skins remain in contact with the must for only a short period to extract the perfect rosé coloration. The wine undergoes fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled, low temperatures, preserving its fresh aromatics and fruity profile. Fortification with natural grape brandy halts fermentation, retaining the wine's natural sugars and giving it a balanced sweetness.
