Wine Description:
Churchill's Finest Reserve Ruby Port is an approachable dark-fruited fortified wine sourced from vines from their own estates located in the Cima Corgo and Douro Superior. All base wines are vinified in traditional granite ‘lagares’ (treading tanks) aimed at heavy extraction before the fermentation is halted by adding grape spirit to retain sweetness in the final wine. Aging begins in the Douro before moving the wines to Vila Nova de Gaia where they mature in seasoned oak vats before being blended and bottled.
Pros:
  • Rich and jammy flavors of dark fruits

Cons:
  • Lacks the flavor definition and complexity of higher quality Ports

Wine Expert Note:

Churchill's Finest Reserve Ruby Port has an inky ruby hue. The nose offers enticing aromas of jammy blackberries, dark cherries, and plums, accompanied by hints of chocolate and spice. The palate is velvety smooth, with luscious flavors of black fruits, dried figs, and damsons. The finish shows good balance between fresh acidity and sweetness and is marked by the slightly warming alcohol and generous jammy dark fruit and chocolate notes.
