Cruz Ruby Port - Porto Cruz

The barrel-aged Cruz Ruby Port from the Douro & Porto wine-growing region is a dense ruby red in the glass. This Porto Cruz Fortified Wine presents the nose with all kinds of prunes and sour cherries. As if that wasn't already impressive, the ageing in large wooden barrels adds further aromas such as blackcurrant.

The Cruz Ruby Port can rightly be described as particularly fruity and velvety, as it has been vinified with a pleasantly sweet taste profile. This powerful fortified wine is full-bodied and multi-layered on the palate. Thanks to the balanced fruit acidity, the Cruz Ruby Port flatters with a pleasant mouthfeel without lacking freshness. The finish of this fortified wine from the Douro & Porto wine-growing region, or more precisely from the Douro DOC, delights with an exceptional aftertaste.
