Portofino imports fresh frozen grapes and fresh juices for winemaking from quality vineyards around the world. Our ongoing commitment to quality and great value provides U-Vins and winemakers across North America with product that guarantees a unique winemaking experience and superior end results.Produced using the finest ingredients, our cooking wines and vinegars uphold Portofino’s commitment to quality.A wine can only be as good as its grape. We work together with like-minded international grape growers in order to source the highest quality of grapes and grape juices for our clients.PORTOFINO was founded in 1997, and continues to be led by Winemaker and Co-founder Alejandro De Miguel.

Alejandro began his career as a respected winemaker in his native Argentina where he demonstrated from the start his vision for excellence and passion for everything wine. Several years after his arrival to Canada he was able to bring to fruition his desire to share with consumers high quality winemaking and gourmet food products.

Gustavo De Agostini, originally from Uruguay and Alejandro’s right hand man for over 20 years is now a partner and a respected winemaker in his own right. Together, Alejandro and Gustavo continue to strengthen their commitment to quality products making Portofino one of Canada’s leading food and wine enterprises.

Our philosophy is based in the tradition of superior winemaking – a wine can only be as good as its grape. Thinking outside the bottle, we extended that tradition to all of our food products, sourcing and importing only the best from suppliers worldwide.

Our imported frozen grapes and fresh juices are offered year-round to wineries, U-Vins and winemakers across North America. Our master vintners are consistently on hand to assist and ensure a smooth and successful winemaking process.

Our selection of cooking wines and vinegars are both imported and made in-house. Our products are available for food distributors and processors, and can be ordered with our in-house brand or customized for private label.

Fresh grapes are the basis for premium winemaking, and in an ideal scenario – you grow and you harvest in the same place where you crush and ferment. From the moment the grape is picked from the vine, temperature control is the key to preserving the grapes’ flavours and characteristics intact for winemaking. It is obvious why temperature control presents a challenge when shipping fresh grapes over long distances. The smallest temperature fluctuation sacrifices flavour and aromatics.

For this reason, when it comes to importing frozen grapes are actually better than fresh grapes. Years of experience have proven that there are no quality down sides to freezing grapes for winemaking. The freezing process causes a gentle intercellular breakdown of red grape cells, releasing more juice and colour without any bitter characteristics – think of it as an extended cold maceration.

In the end we are able to work with grapes that have preserved their characteristics, show to be more naturally sterile and more suitable for fermentation. Perhaps the most significant advantage of working with frozen grapes and juice is timing. Timing allows us to make blends and modify our winemaking protocols in order maximize the grapes’ potential and end result.
