Fonseca Ruby Port is a Portuguese fortified wine from the Douro Valley, produced by Fonseca Guimaraens since 1815. It is built primarily around Touriga Nacional, blended from more than 80 approved Douro varieties, and aged for three years in large wooden vats. Robotic lagares known as "Port Toes" replicate traditional foot treading during fermentation. Serve slightly chilled, between 14–16°C, in a small tulip-shaped glass. It drinks well on its own as a dessert pour or after-dinner sipper, and also works in cocktails such as a Port Cobbler, Porto Tonico or Port Negroni.
Tasting Notes
Deep ruby in the glass, with fresh, vigorous aromas of ripe cherry and blackcurrant, dark berry preserves and a subtle floral lift.
Full-bodied, with a luscious, velvety mouthfeel, jammy red and black fruits, well-integrated smooth tannins and a well-knit structure.
Long and richly fruity, with lingering cassis and dark cherry notes and soft, rounded tannins.
