Late Bottled Vintage

Ferreira Port Late Bottled Vintage

Tasting Notes

A deep ruby colour. Intense aroma of good complexity, with very present black fruits, slight shrub, balsamic truffle and undergrowth notes, and hints of spices, like pepper and curry, with a slight stoniness, which gives it great harmony. An excellent body on the palate and marked acidity, very good quality tannins, black fruit and spices of pepper, with a highly complex, elegant finish.

Varieties

41% Touriga Franca, 33% Touriga Nacional, 15% Tinta Roriz, 6% Tinta Barroca, 5% Tinto Cão

Technical Notes

The grapes were selected from plots at the Quinta do Porto and Quinta do Caêdo, and also from certain farmers who have been working with us for a long time. It was vinified at the Quinta do Seixo Winery, using traditional Port Wine technology, with treading in granite winepresses and controlled temperature, to obtain the extraction of compounds that contribute to the colour, aroma and flavour of the wine.

Food Pairing

Ideal with cheese and rich chocolate desserts, fresh fruit, or red fruit and wild berry tarts.
