87 Points | International Wine Cellar , March/April 1998
Laid-back, rather complex aromas of black raspberry, maple syrup and golden raisins seem midway between ruby and tawny. Smooth, nicely concentrated and rich; the maple syrup note repeats in the mouth but is complemented by fresh berry flavors. Finishes slightly fiery but long, with a suggestion of raisin.

For someone new to the pleasures of a Ruby Port or a well versed traveler in the world of wines; Cockburns Fine Ruby Port has a richness of subtle flavors married to tantalize the palate. Well balanced blending of dark sweet cherry, vanilla and the smoothing taste of oak casting with a hint of blackberry make this a fine choice for an apertif or a dessert/after dinner cordial. The pleasure lingers on your tongue reminding of all the things you love about spring and summer. After you have read all the reviews; do yourself a favor and try it for yourself...you won't be disappointed.
Sweet...in a great way.

Recently sampled Cockburn Ruby at the ever popular Caffe Dolce, Suffern, NY monthly wine tasting event. Notes included lots of fruit, sweetness and balanced. Finish was splendid for a Port in this price range. This would be a great starter in the winter, especially apres'ski. Traditionally served with dessert or cheese after a meal.

Is the the perfect word to describe this port. Color and taste can't be beat for the price.
