Description

This wine is crafted from a selection of high-quality grapes, traditionally foot-trodden and aged in large oak vats for a period of 4 to 6 years before bottling. Unlike vintage ports, which are bottled after just two years of aging, LBV ports are aged longer to achieve a more approachable style while still retaining the depth and complexity of a vintage port.

Tasting Notes

Best enjoyed slightly chilled, it pairs well with rich desserts, blue cheeses, or as a standalone dessert wine.
