The grapes for the Late Bottled Vintage (LBV) are foot trodden in granite lagares in the traditional manner before aging in large oak ‘tonels’ for 4 years, in which time it naturally sediments before bottling. This is a beautiful port, full of round, soft flavours but with great structure. It is a highly concentrated, full-bodied wine with young and vibrant dark fruits, cinnamon spices vibrant tannins and long finish.
