LBV Port from Wiese & Krohn – Vintage 2013
Production
Traditional Port grapes are sourced from Krohn’s Quinta do Retiro Novo estate, and from long-standing relationships with neighbouring growers. After fermentation, the wine is aged in barrel for 4-6 years before bottling. Krohn’s LBV Ports are neither fined nor filtered and may thus throw a sediment. We recommend to decant them before serving.
Tasting Notes
Deep ruby colour with spicy black fruit aromas. The palate has vibrant plum and blackberry characters layered with more spice, fresh acidity and firm tannins. A full and rich style with impressive length.
Food Match
LBV Port is perfect with blue cheeses, a decent mature cheddar or in fact any good strong cheese. And equally amazing with a slab of dark chocolate, L-U-S-H!
