大约300多年前,英国人为抵制法国货,酒商转向气候与地理位置都与法国南部相近的葡萄牙,进口白葡萄酒。然而,葡萄牙气候毕竟比法国炎热,再加上长途运输,酒极易氧化变质。英国人便想出来,将白兰地加入葡萄酒中以增强其酒精度,以利长途运输。酒(Porto)就这样诞生了。 About 300 years ago, the British were boycotting French goods and the wine merchants switched to white wines that were similar in climate and geographical location to Portugal in the southern part of France. However, after all, the climate in Portugal is hotter than in France. Coupled with long-distance transport, the wine is extremely susceptible to oxidative deterioration. The British came up with the idea of ​​adding brandy to the wine to enhance its alcoholic level to facilitate long-distance transport. This is how Porto was born.
