Quinta Do Infantado Ruby Medium-Dry Porto (NV) is a distinctive, high-quality Portuguese fortified wine made from a blend of Touriga Franca, Touriga Nacional, and Tinta Roriz. Unlike mass-produced rubies, Infantado relies exclusively on top-tier "Class A" estate vineyards and champions a rare "meio-seco" (medium-dry) style, meaning it is fermented longer and contains less residual sugar than typical, syrupy Ports.

Flavor Profile

• Aroma: A dark, welcoming nose filled with fresh red cherries, black plums, and cranberries, accented by dark chocolate, walnuts, and wild field herbs.
• Palate: Rich and plummy but impressively lean and balanced. It eschews heavy, sugary jams in favor of a rustic, chapped tannic structure and a mouthwatering vein of tangy acidity.
• Finish: Long, warming, and dry, leaving clean fruit expressions, spicy tannins, and a hint of bittersweet cocoa.

Food Pairings

• Dark chocolate mousse or brownies
• Blue cheeses (like Stilton or Danish Blue)
• Tangy goat cheese (Chèvre)
• Almond cake or toasted nuts
• Roasted venison or duck with berry reductions
• Dried figs and walnuts
