Description
Dark and lively ruby colour. On the nose intense red fruit aromas dominate, with some floral hints. On the palate fresh and robust fruit flavours, with an excellent long finish. Smith Woodhouse Fine Ruby pairs wonderfully with cheese and rich chocolate desserts. This Fine Ruby is a blend of young Ports from different harvests. They are especially blended to have robust fresh fruity aromas and flavours. Smith Woodhouse is a specialist producer of premium quality Ports. The uniformity of this quality is underpinned by Smith Woodhouse’s own Madalena vineyard from where the wines are largely sourced. This small Quinta (vineyard property) has the highest A quality rating and is located in the Rio Torto district, acknowledged as one of the finest Port growing areas. Over the coming years, the recently acquired Quinta do Vale Coelho, further upriver in the Douro Superior, producing full and elegant wines, will gradually form an important component of Smith Woodhouse’s Ports.
