Benson Vineyards tells heartfelt story from vine to bottle.
A misty-eyed Scott Benson ’96 examined a single bottle of Ruby Port with a nostalgic grin on his face. The velvety dessert wine with the perfect amount of sweetness tugged at his heart strings. Standing in a chilled storage room surrounded by cases of wine, Benson said the Ruby Port is named after his grandmother. “It was a labor of love and a fitting wine for someone like her,” he said. The port was a three-year project, and Grandma Ruby never got the chance to drink it before she died in 2010. But her sweet memory lives on every time someone uncorks a bottle.“It’s a tribute to my Benson family roots,” Benson said.
We love supporting our Lute owned businesses. If you know of other Lutes that we can feature at PLU on Tap, please let us know. Fill out the form below or pass it on to another Lute!
