With floral aromas and ripe black fruit flavours, the 2017 LBV has a perfect balance between complexity and elegance. The wine has been filtered of its natural sediment before bottling (unlike Vintage Port), meaning there is no need to decant before serving. Displaying the house style of concentrated fruit with added spiciness, but intended to be approachable at a younger age than it's vintage counterpart.
Food-Pairing
The versatility has no limits. This LBV is delicious with chocolate desserts, especially when dark and bitter chocolate is used, foie gras, sublime with cheeses like Roquefort & Gorgonzola as well as Portuguese cheeses. Superb with cheesecake and main courses with fillet mignon (beef) or a veal dish with bearnaise sauce
