An array of aromas are on display with dark raisined fruits, mocha, hints of vanillin oak and nutty aged barrel characters. Initially luscious with richly concentrated fruit and nut flavours. Nuances of mocha and coffee have integrated over time with vanillin oak to develop complex, barrel aged flavours in harmony resulting in a smooth, lingering drying finish.

Porto Ferreira Ruby has an intense and well defined ruby hue, showing the quality of the selected wines. Its intense aroma is reminiscent of very ripe fruit, fine-tuned through its careful ageing in wood as well as through the blending carried out during its natural ageing process. Full-bodied and rich, it has a fine balance between its sweetness and its tannin structure, giving it unique characteristics and a fine and attractive long finish.

Fresh, soft and rounded with a creamy luscious mid-palate and a sweet lingering finish

The palate of this wine is fresh and intense, with a tropical fruit salad burst of flavour upfront as soon as you have a sip. There is a lovely balanced acidity providing length, structure and fruit weight to highlight some of the creamier notes that evolved from the yeast during fermentation. This is a great food wine.

Soft and rounded with a luscious midpalate, McWilliam’s Premium Selection Tawny shows dominant flavours of raisin and toffee with hints of fruit-cake character and a sweet, lingering finish.
