Production notes

Late Bottled Vintage (LBV) Ports are wines of a single very good year that age in large oak vats between four and six years, until they reach an ideal level of maturity. LBVs are then bottled, ready to be enjoyed without the need for decanting as the natural sediment is left behind in the vat. They are rich, full-bodied wines with a smooth texture, mellowed over time by the wood ageing.

Tasting notes

Bright and intense red berry fruit aromas are complemented by delicate traces of mint. The palate displays a svelte texture with fine-grained, spicy tannins providing structure and substance. Fresh, rich flavours of raspberry and cherry
