Description

Port Wine is, by defenition, a generous and fortified wine produced in the Douro Region- the oldest Demarcated Wine Region in the world. Produced from tradition indigenous varieties, its method of vinification is caracterized by the addition of wine brandy to the must causing an interruption in fermentation. This process preserves all natural sugars in the wine and allows the development of a licorous texture.

Although made from one specific Vintage, as shown on the lable, LBV's (on the contrary to Vintage Ports) are bottled between the fourth and sixth year of ageing. This longer ageing period ensures a smoother and rounder palate, making this wine enjoyable for immediate consume. The Royal Oporto LBV is an example of the classic Real Companhia Velha style. The Old Vines of Quinta das Carvalhas contribute with power and structure, while Quinta de Cidrô's Touriga Nacional unveils the elegant side of this blend.

Tasting

A deep and dark coloured LBV with notes of red fruit and raisins complexed with berries and spice. Very fine on the palate, with firm and round tanins showing a very solid structure, and finishing off elegantely with great fruit character.
