Formed in December of 2004, Fortified began creating and shaping their destiny to becoming what it is now. Started as a jam band of their local music scene they slowly found their true voice and sound. After cutting back members to a tight-knit dedicated fab four, they began to venture into uncharted territory in musical genres. "Electic Rock" are one of the many titles given to their sound as they blend everything from jazz to hardcore, to make and entirely original sound that tends to break down barries of the standard musical demographic. Young and old, hardcore to prep, can all be found standing side by side singing every word as the energy of Fortified transcends the masses leaving only a message worth living by.

In the past centuries fortified wines were highly valued and appreciated by the noble classes of the European countries, in particular the one of England, which imported huge quantities of Port, Madeira and Jerez, known in England as Sherry, and later huge quantities of Marsala as well.
Fortified wines have an alcohol by volume usually between 15% and 22%, therefore their contrasting action on succulence and the capacity of cleansing unctuous foods will be pretty evident.
Fortified wines are usually destined with the matching of desserts and cheese, indeed, in case their organoleptic characteristics are carefully evaluated, particularly sweetness, they can also be used for interesting and extraordinary matchings with other and unsuspicious foods.
