Description and technical sheet
Sandeman Porto Ruby is a direct, fruit-driven expression of the classic Ruby style from one of Portugal's historic Port houses. Sandeman traces its origins to 1790 and still creates this wine by blending selected lots to preserve richness, balance and a consistent house character.
Traditional Port method and oak maturation
The grapes are hand picked, destemmed and crushed before fermentation at controlled temperature with skin maceration. Wine spirit is added at the chosen moment to stop fermentation and establish the balance between body, sweetness and aroma. After harvest, the wines remain in the Douro until the following spring, then move to Sandeman's lodges in Vila Nova de Gaia, where they mature in oak casks before the final blend is prepared.
Tasting profile and serving
Bright ruby red in colour, it shows red fruits, plum and strawberry on the nose. The palate is rich, round and well balanced, with clear flavours of fresh plum and red fruit. It pairs well with full-flavoured creamy cheeses, chocolate desserts and fruit pies. It is ready to drink, does not require decanting and should be served at 14-16 °C. Once opened, the producer recommends consuming it within four weeks.
