Fortified Wines

Sweet and fortified wines were once the most expensive and coveted beverages in Europe - served to kings, stored in private cellars, and considered the epitome of luxury. Today, these styles are experiencing a renaissance, and now is the perfect time to rediscover them.

IWINE Sommelier School invites you to a tasting evening “Sweet and Fortified Wines.” November is the ideal time to immerse yourself in the warm, rich, and remarkable world of beverages crafted by the sun, aging, and craftsmanship.

Tasting Program: 5 samples - Sherry, Porto, Madeira, Marsala, and Mistelle. Each has its own character, style, and story. The tasting will reveal how diverse sweetness, structure, and aroma can be.

During the evening, you will explore production techniques, understand how natural sweetness is created, learn the differences between styles, and discover why these wines were once global bestsellers.

Five samples - five sunlit stories that warm you in winter and reveal the richness of the world’s wine culture.
