Dacosta Ruby: The fruitful expression of the Douro

The Dacosta Ruby Port is considered by lovers to be the 'sweet spot' for anyone looking for an honest, full port with a crystal-clear expression of fruit. The grapes for this port come from the steep slopes of Cima Corgo and Douro Superior, the finest regions of the area. What makes this release special is its crystal-clear balance; the wine matures for an average of three years in large casks, allowing the primary fruit to be preserved without woody notes taking over. This is a drink that brings the vibrant energy of the Portuguese sun directly to your glass.

At Brouwhoeve, we appreciate Dacosta for its consistent quality and accessible profile. This is a port that shows tradition can have a vibrant and modern face, with notes of blackberries beautifully melding with the sweet intensity characteristic of Ruby. The combination of ripe fruit and a silky-smooth texture provides a significantly fuller experience and a more intense tasting experience than many other entry-level ports. This is a modern classic that works excellently as a social wine with drinks or as an ingredient in the kitchen. The 75 cl bottle is carefully filled to preserve the rich aromas and robust character of the 19% alcohol perfectly to the last drop.

Buying Dacosta Ruby Port 75 cl means choosing liquid fruit in its purest and most balanced form. A vibrant, silky-smooth port for the lover who enjoys a full-fruited profile and a strikingly pure, warm finish.
