Offley Ruby Porto is a classic Portuguese fortified wine produced by Offley, a historic port house established in 1737. This young ruby port is crafted from a blend of traditional Portuguese grape varieties, including Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, Tinta Amarela, and Tinto Cão. The wine undergoes fermentation with the skins to extract color and tannins, followed by fortification with grape spirits to halt fermentation and preserve natural sweetness. Aged for a short period in oak barrels, Offley Ruby Porto showcases the fresh, fruity character typical of the ruby style. With an alcohol by volume (ABV) of 19.5%, it offers a balanced and approachable profile, making it an excellent introduction to the world of port wines.
