Vinification of the Fabelhaft Ruby Port from Niepoort The grapes for the Fabelhaft Ruby Port from Niepoort come from the sun-drenched locations of the Douro Valley, known for its steep, terraced vineyards with ideal conditions for port wines. The vines grow on schist soils that excellently retain heat and promote a slow, even ripening of the grapes. Harvesting is done by hand, ensuring that only the best grapes are processed. Vinification begins with gentle destemming and careful maceration. The maceration fermentation uses traditional foot-treading methods that ensure a gentle extraction of color and aromas while preserving the natural freshness of the grapes. After fermentation, brandy is added to stop the fermentation process and secure the characteristic sweetness of the Ruby Port. For maturation, the wine is stored in stainless steel tanks to preserve the fruity aromas and intense color. Through the short aging period, the Ruby Port develops its typical bright fruitiness and lively structure.
