Late Bottled Vintage Port
-- Weingut: Van Zellers & Co. LBV Ports are issued from traditional and indigenous hand-picked Red grapes grown in different sub- regions of the Douro. The grapes are foot crushed in old granite “lagares” and ferment in the same “lagares” between 2 to 5 days. When the must reaches the decided residual sugar level, the grape brandy is added to the must to stop the fermentation. After racking and pressing, the newly made Port is then aged, between 36 and 48 months, in old wooden vats, with a capacity between 600 and 10.000 litres. Bottled without any fining, nor filtration, Van Zellers & Co. LBV Port is a traditional unfiltered Late Bottled Vintage, very deep ruby in colour, floral nose, dark cherries, cassis, raspberries, cedar spice, velvety tannins. Elegant and smooth, Van Zellers & Co. LBV Port has a great balance and finesse and a very long and fruity finish.
