The Osborne Ports are the guardians of a very long-standing tradition, wines with an adventurous soul to be enjoyed during moments of calm. For the Osborne Port Tawny 10 years, the grapes are completely destemmed and fermentation is carried out in stainless steel vats at a controlled temperature with continuous pumping over, remontage, to maximize the extraction of color and flavours. Once the wine achieves 6%-9% abv, spirit at 77% from wine distillation is added. The fermentation stops leaving a natural sweetness in the wine. In the spring following the vintage, the wine is transferred to the traditional 550 litre Port casks, called “pipes”, where it's aged for 10 years.
