Product Description

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 consumption.

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.

Fermentation takes place in the stone lagares followed by the traditional treading by foot, which, ensures greater yet softer extraction for the necessary concentration. Ageing occurs in oak vats for a period of 4 to six years, on the contrary to a Vintage Port, which ages only 2 years.

Food pairings : Dark Chocolate, Roquefort Cheese, Red Fruits

Alc: 20%
