Origin
Produced in the Douro Valley, Portugal, a UNESCO World Heritage region renowned for its terraced vineyards and traditional Port wine production.
Variety
Blend of traditional Douro grape varieties typically used in Ruby Port production, including but not limited to:
- Touriga Nacional
- Touriga Franca
- Tinta Roriz (Tempranillo)

Production
The wine is produced by fermenting the grape must and then fortifying it with grape spirit to halt fermentation, preserving natural sweetness and vibrant fruit flavors. It is aged in large oak vats for a short period to maintain its fresh and fruity character, typical of Ruby Port style.
