Tasting - Prime’s Ruby Port

Region: Oporto
Country: Portugal
Year: Non-vintage
Price: $19, on sale for $11.95

Shop Review: Ruby color with red fruit aromas; pleasantly sweet and balanced taste. As the wines used to produce Prime’s Ruby Port age , they gain smoothness and elegance while retaining their fruitiness, intensity and youthful ruby color. They are then blended together for smoothness and consistency.

My Review: Wow, this wine was a very aromatic wine. I could detect a floral smell. There was also a bit of a fruit undertone in the aromas. I thought this also smelt like cherries. When tasting this wine, you could taste the sugar in it. The wine also reminded me of the good tasting cherry cough drops. I also could taste chocolate and raspberries. This had a nice sugary finish. 

I tasted this on its own with no food.
