Churchill’s Reserve Port

18% ABVPortugal

Ruby port is generic for a class of rich, red fortified wine produced in Portugal. Ruby port is typically amongst the least expensive of port styles and most commonly employed in cocktails. Ruby port is made from red grapes and tends to be aged in tanks or vats prior to bottling, and seldom for terribly long (rarely more than 3 years). The aging ruby port undergoes involves limited exposure to oxygen, and so it retains its red color and fruitiness. Ruby port is ready to drink once it is bottled. Generally speaking, if a recipe just says “port”, then a ruby port is probably implied. If the wine in question wasn’t made in Portugal, it isn’t really Port, but a wine made in the style of port. Some countries (including the United States) permit these wines to be labeled as “port”.
