Ruby Port has a red color, predominant aromas of red fruit, and is full-bodied on the palate. It is bottled while it is still young to preserve its red color and fresh aromas before they oxidize. It can be aged in oak, but only for a short time, no more than a few years, and almost always in large-capacity oak barrels to reduce the influence of oxygen during its aging. The ruby style varies depending on the intensity of the color, complexity of the aromas, and full-bodiedness.
