Winery Notes: The names Ruby and Tawny indicate style rather than quality of Port. Ruby Ports are blended and matured predominantly in large old oak vats to have a youthful and grapey character. Red to purple in colour they may be concentrated, powerful, velvety and assertive. Affable wines, they tend to match well with dark chocolate, berry desserts and good cheese.
Cockburn's Fine Ruby port is a blend of young wines from various years, aged for three to five years and bottled after filtration. It retains the red color and fruit flavor of youth, and is ready to drink when bottled, offering a rich, fruity, sweet taste.
Laid-back, rather complex aromas of black raspberry, maple syrup and golden raisins seem midway between ruby and tawny. Smooth, nicely concentrated and rich; the maple syrup note repeats in the mouth but is complemented by fresh berry flavors. Finishes slightly fiery but long, with a suggestion of raisin.
