More information about The Junior Ruby Port - Niepoort

The The Junior Ruby Port from Niepoort is a young, full-bodied and fruit-driven Port made from Sousão, Tinta Amarela, Tinta Cão, Tinta Francisca, Tinta Roriz, Touriga Francesa, Touriga Nacional and other red Portuguese grape varieties. 

In the glass, this Port  presents a bright, dark red color. The appealing aromatic nose reveals intense notes of ripe fruit - especially ripe plums and juicy cherries stand out. The bouquet is underpinned by nuances of cocoa and dark chocolate. On the palate, this port is wonderfully velvety and soft. A Port with a lot of flavor and fullness.

Vinification of the Niepoort The Junior Ruby Port

Hand-picked grapes, from older vineyards in the Cima Corgo region of the Douro Valley, are fermented in traditional lagares. Subsequently, this Port is aged for an average of three years in large wooden casks in the Niepoort cellars of Vila Nova de Gaia before this Port is bottled. 

Food recommendation for the Niepoort Port The Junior Ruby

We recommend this port with dark chocolate desserts, blue cheese and hard cheeses.
