Porto Ferreira Ruby

Porto Ferreira Ruby has an intense and well defined ruby hue, showing the quality of the selected wines. Its intense aroma is reminiscent of very ripe fruit, fine-tuned through its careful ageing in wood as well as through the blending carried out during its natural ageing process. Full-bodied and rich, it has a fine balance between its sweetness and its tannin structure, giving it unique characteristics and a fine and attractive long finish.

After the vintage, the wine stays in the Douro, where the Winter cold helps lees to settle. The following Spring, the wines are transferred to the traditional company lodges at V.N.Gaia and stored in oak casks, where they will age for some years. During ageing, the wines are monitored and tasted by the oenology team, which selects the wines and supervises the blending so as to reach the final wine, with the character and style of Porto Ferreira Ruby. The final blend has an average age of about 3 years.
