A style of fortified wine from the Oporto region in Portugal. Of the two main styles of port, ruby and tawny, the tawny is aged “oxidatively” for an extended period, leaving the wine with toasted caramel, coffee and mocha aromas and flavors. Conversely, the ruby style will have less ageing, and you will smell and taste much more fresh and ripe fruit in comparison to the tawny style.
