English to Arabic translations [PRO] Food & Dairy | | English term or phrase: Fortified wine | | Fortified wine is wine to which additional alcohol has been added, the most common additive being brandy (a spirit distilled from wine). The original reason for fortification was to preserve wines, as the higher alcohol level and additional sweetness help to preserve the wine (when supplemental alcohol is added before fermentation finishes, it kills the yeast and leaves residual sugar). Even though other preservation methods exist, the fortification process survives, as consumers have developed tastes for wines preserved this way. Many different wines styles have developed around the use of fortification in winemaking. The most popular include Sherry, Port, Marsala, Madeira, Vermouth, Malaga, Liqueur Muscat, vins de liqueur, Muscat de Beaumes-de-Venise and other vins doux naturels.[1] |
