Grape varieties: Old Vines.

Vinification: All the grapes come from the Quinta do Noval vineyard. The grapes are trodden by foot to obtain the must, then during fermentation they are pressed in lagares, the Quinta’s traditional stone vats. The wine matures for at least 4 years in oak barrels, instead of 2 years for a Classic Vintage. This explains its name, “Late Bottled Vintage”. The longer ageing in casks helps to make the wine smoother and gives it a very approachable style, ready to drink as soon as it is bottled.

Tasting Notes: A deep color with a fruity and intense bouquet. Explosion of red fruit in the mouth with a solid tannic structure and a long, smooth finish.

Recommendation: Serve at cellar temperature (15/17°). Recommended to separate the sediment from this unfiltered port. As it is unfiltered, it will improve and mature for a few years in the bottle. It can be enjoyed for up to 10 days, as long as the bottle is kept in a cool place.

Food pairing: Particularly pleasant with a dessert, dark chocolate or cheese. Also on its own at the end of a meal.
