Think of ruby and tawny ports as the non-vintage Champagne of the Port world (kind of) in that they are both made to reflect a ‘house style’ rather than a particular vintage. After fermentation, ruby Port is stored in tanks to prevent oxidation and preserve its rich color and fresh, fruity flavors. The wines have a light tannic structure and are made for immediate consumption. At Quinta do Infantado their ruby Port is a blend of wines using two to three vintages in the final cepage. The wine shows flavors of plums and dried fruits with nice balance, as this medium-dry Port offers a slightly drier feel than is typical for a ruby.

Pairings:
blue veined cheeses and baked fruit desserts
