PORT Rubino Estate

PORT Rubino (Estate) Wine Details
Price:

Description: Rubino is Italian for RUBY. Ruby ports are aged for just a short time (2 to 3 years in oak) and are bottled young & fiery. Ours is 18.5% alcohol and 8% R.S. (residual sugar), this satisfying PORT wine is a “true port” fermented from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon grown at Texas Hills Vineyard and made into a rich wine spending one year aging in American Oak barrels then we added 100% grape brandy to “marry” to the wine, and fortify, for an additional year - developing the rich flavors, body, and aromas we desired. We get the aroma of blackberry jam, typical of our Cabernet Sauvignon, and suggest you try this port after a nice dinner, pairing it with dark chocolate or Stilton cheese for the conclusion of a perfect meal. 1,000 cases produced.
