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.
