| | Origin of Port Wine - Portugal |
| | Port Wine is a designation, a name of origin and not a type of wine. | | | The former are generally the result of wine blendings so as to keep up the wine's vitality and also to maintain the style and quality of a specific brand; as a rule no date or year appears on the label. | | | The origins of the vine and of wine production in the wild territories which later became the cradle of Port wine are lost in the distance of centuries. |

| | Port Wine |
| | Fortified wine - a special type of wine where, not excluding other situations duly defined in European Union legislation, the natural fermentation of the must produced by grapes is interrupted by adding grape brandy, as in the case of Port Wine. | | | Port is a sweet red wine with about 20% alcohol (as opposed to table wine which is usually about 13%) and rather low acidity and tannin. | | | Port is created in a unique way that captures the fruit and flavor of the ripe grapes in wines that possess extraordinary longevity. |
