As an LBV (Late Bottled Vintage) Port, it is a wine from a single harvest (2018), aged in oak barrels for about 4 to 6 years before late bottling. This long period of aging in wood gives the wine remarkable complexity and softness, allowing one to immediately appreciate all the richness of a Vintage Port, but in a more accessible and ready-to-serve style. The tasting notes reveal an intense and enveloping aroma, with wild berries (blackberry, blueberry) and a subtle hint of mint, providing a vibrant freshness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eOn the palate, it is full-bodied and balanced, full of ripe black fruit flavours (plum) enveloped by firm tannins with a slight peppery trace and fine acidity – a combination that defines the elegant structure of this Port. The finish is long and dry, a striking characteristic of the Dow's style, leaving nuances of tobacco and tea that prolong the pleasure of the tasting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eServing Suggestions\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eDark chocolate: Desserts based on dark chocolate (such as cakes or mousses) enhance the fruity intensity of the LBV.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eBlue cheeses: Classic and elegant, the combination with blue cheeses (e.g., Stilton, Roquefort) balances the sweetness of the Port with the salty and spicy notes of the cheese.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eDesserts with dried fruits: Tarts, puddings or sweets with almonds, walnuts or dried figs complement the rich and caramelised notes of this wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eOn its own (meditation wine): It is also excellent to enjoy without accompaniments, calmly appreciating it after a meal as a contemplative wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eContents: 750 ml\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WineGourmet.pt","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47633446011043,"sku":"72","price":12.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0755\/0104\/3875\/files\/Dows2018LateBottledVintagePorto.png?v=1780244786"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0755\/0104\/3875\/collections\/7_282d5bb8-2d34-43c1-8631-e953e0a6d7c0.png?v=1780668044","url":"https:\/\/winegourmet.pt\/en\/collections\/vinho-do-porto.oembed","provider":"Wine Gourmet","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
