A Mother's Day guide to finding the right bottle of port wine.
Port wine is a timeless classic, loved for its rich flavours, versatility, and ability to elevate any occasion. Whether enjoyed as a sophisticated sip or mixed into a creative cocktail, there’s a Port for every taste and preference. With a variety of styles ranging from deep and complex to light and refreshing, this guide will help you find the perfect bottle for the special women in your life this Mother’s Day. Whether you're celebrating your mum, grandmother, or any mother figure, a thoughtful bottle of Port is a wonderful way to show appreciation.
For those who appreciate the depth and heritage of fine wines, a Ruby or Tawny Port is a perfect match. Ruby Ports are vibrant, fruit-forward, and full-bodied, offering notes of dark berries, cherries, and a hint of spice. Tawny Ports, on the other hand, are aged for a longer period, developing smooth, nutty characteristics with caramel and dried fruit notes. These styles are best enjoyed neat, allowing their rich complexity to shine.
