Description

Fonseca - Ruby Porto is a classic, youthful ruby port crafted by the esteemed Fonseca house. Known for its deep, fresh fruit character, this ruby port is an approachable introduction to the world of port wines, offering a vibrant and rich profile. Fonseca’s Ruby Porto is aged in large oak vats for a shorter period, which preserves the wine’s bold fruitiness and intense color. This easy-drinking port is perfect for casual sipping or pairing with a range of desserts and cheeses.

Fonseca’s Ruby Porto is made from carefully selected grapes from the Douro Valley in Portugal, known for its steep terraced vineyards and high-quality fruit. The wine undergoes fermentation and is then aged in large oak casks for up to three years, preserving its primary fruit flavors while softening the tannins for a smooth, balanced finish. The result is a lively and accessible port with the hallmark quality of Fonseca’s craftsmanship.
