De La Rosa Ruby Port 500ml
Trust your Taste
Red cherry and berry flavours give this Ruby Reserve Port a vibrant character. Rich but relatively fresh, it has a long finish that feels less sweet than many Ruby styles. Try it slightly chilled as an aperitif or alongside cheese.

Generous fruit and rounded presence balanced by freshness favour Broad palates. PalateKey groups wines by how they feel, helping you find styles you enjoy. Your own taste comes first.
This suits you if you enjoy fruit-led Port with freshness and a relatively dry-feeling finish.
It may not suit you if you want a genuinely dry wine or very mature, nutty flavours.
