This Feuerheerds Fine Ruby port is made from Touriga NacionalTouriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, Tinta Barroca, and Tinto Cão. A blend of selected young ports that mature for several years in large oak barrels. This preserves the young and intense fruit character. The port acquires its sweet and powerful character partly through the fortification of the wine, which is only partially fermented, with pure alcohol. Because the fermentation process is halted at this stage, many unfermented sugars remain, giving the wine its sultry sweet character. This is precisely why the wine is also excellently suited for the somewhat novice wine drinker. For many, a sweet wine is a pleasant way to conclude a meal. However, the wine should preferably be served a few degrees cooler than room temperature to allow the fruit to speak even more.
This Fine Ruby port has a seductive aroma of black fruit, a rich, full body with flavors of red fruit, such as plums and raspberries, chocolate, and Mediterranean herbs.
This port is delicious on its own as an aperitif, for example, but precisely because of its powerful style, it is suitable for intense dishes such as cheeses and chocolate desserts. A strange but excellent combination is also with a pepper steak. Give it a try!
Feuerheerds is the name of one of the two Port houses of the Van Zeller family. The Van Zeller family traces its origins back to the 13th century in the cities of Mechelen and Nijmegen, where they owned several buildings. During the Eighty Years' War, they migrated to Spain and Portugal. Their descendants are now the 14th generation. They belong to the elite of the Port and wine trade in the Douro region. The company is currently led by Christiano van Zeller together with his daughter Francisca. In addition to the Port houses, the Van Zeller family also manages a magnificent wine portfolio. Absolute top class from Portugal.
