Let’s talk about Porto Ruby Sandeman - 75cl

More questions

Porto Ruby of the Sandeman company is the most traditional wine of the category, still produced with the ancient original recipe of 1790 by George Sandeman.

It comes from grapes grown in the Douro, harvested exclusively by hand, when they have reached perfect ripeness. The result is a very pleasant and extremely versatile wine, perfect both as a meditation wine and in combination with blue cheeses and desserts. A Port that amazes for its great ability to preserve the special characteristics for a long time, which undoubtedly represents a timeless classic.

It shines in its ruby red color, with light purple reflections. The nose has great intensity, with fruity aromas of blueberries, blackberries and cherries, followed by floral scents of violet water and iris, finely blended with vanilla notes and light toasted hints. On the palate it is balanced, rich and round, with countless hints of dried plum and flowers.

Perfect in combination with blue cheeses, it is excellent as an accompaniment to dry pastries, chocolate desserts, zabaglione and tarts with fresh red berry fruit. Also pleasant as a meditation wine.

The story
Founded in 1790 by George Sandeman as a wine merchant in London, the company soon specialized in Port and Sherry. Over the following centuries the Sandeman family developed an international network and ageing lodges in Vila Nova de Gaia where numerous barrels are still stored. In 2002 the brand became part of Sogrape; today Sandeman combines historical heritage with modern production at Quinta do Seixo in the Douro.
Ageing
Ageing in barrels/casks in the historic cellars of Vila Nova de Gaia and in vinification/ageing facilities at Quinta do Seixo; Tawny styles rely on prolonged barrel ageing.
