Product information "De Krans Premium Cape Ruby"

De Krans Premium Cape Ruby is produced in the typical Portuguese method. The Cape Ruby matures in the bottle and brings out young, fruity and sweetish soft aromas of red and blue berries, violets and cinnamon. Exciting taste notes of lush cherry nuances, ripe plums and a hint of fine chocolate and warming spices pamper the palate. Very tasty and highly interesting to try a typical Portuguese product from a completely different country.

Treatment in the cellar

The grape material for this Cape Ruby was completely destemmed, crushed and fermented as quickly as possible in open fermentation vats. The fermentation process was spontaneous, i.e. no commercial yeast was used for the fermentation process and the fermentation was done by wild yeast only. The fermentation was stopped at the desired sugar content by adding pure alcohol to the must. After pressing the skins, the wines fermented in 300 l barrels, were then blended and bottled.
