Fortified wine aperitifs like vermouth and sherry always add tons of flavour and texture to your cocktail. The spirit I have used least for this until now is probably Port wine. Let’s see if we can do something nice with this great bottle of Fonseca Porto Bin N°27. This is a rich, vibrant, intense, fruity and full bodied port.
Since this is a port wine with a very intense fruity nose and a smooth texture with lots of tannins, we can absolutely use it for tasty combinations. You can pair it with chocolate, fruit, cheese or desserts. We are looking for a bolder combination in this Manhattan variation.
