This ruby port was given to me in Portugal last year and I hauled it back here to the States. I've never heard of it before or since.
I guess this is a crusted port though the word does not appear anywhere on the label. There is a light to medium amount of sediment. The color is full ruby, with bricking at the edges. The nose is more tawny than ruby, with a lot of wood and medicinal notes. Tastes of red fruit with a lot of woody, nutty, earthy tones. The tannins are gripping and still primary. Perfectly drinkable, but not special.
