Description

The 2017 Quinta da Devesa Late Bottled Vintage (LBV) Port is a distinguished expression from the Douro Valley, reflecting the estate's commitment to traditional winemaking and sustainable viticulture. Crafted from hand-harvested grapes, including Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, and old vines, the wine underwent traditional foot treading in granite lagares and was aged in old wooden casks before bottling. This unfiltered LBV showcases the depth and character typical of Quinta da Devesa's style.

In the glass, it presents a deep ruby hue, dense and opaque. The nose is very intense and complex, with notes of ripe black fruit, cocoa, and chocolate. On the palate, it is dense, full, and harmonious, with flavors of black fruit, plums, and chocolate. Pleasantly balanced, it has mature and very good quality tannins, leading to a long, sweet, and addictive finish. This LBV is ready to drink upon release but will age beautifully in a cellar, developing further complexity over time.

The 2017 vintage in the Douro Valley was marked by steady summer temperatures, allowing for prolonged hang times and natural ripeness, resulting in wines with extraordinary acidity levels and freshness. This LBV is anticipated to age gracefully over the next decade.

For optimal enjoyment, decant the wine and serve at 14ºC to 16ºC. It pairs splendidly with blue cheeses, walnuts, dark chocolate, and figs. Given its robust structure and complexity, this Late Bottled Vintage Port is a valuable addition to any collector's cellar.
