Dow's LBV 2000 Port

Notes - Dow’s 1998 Late Bottled Vintage is a wine of a single year but it is not a “declared” Vintage Port. Whereas Vintage Port spends only two years in oak cask and then matures in bottle, LBV is aged in seasoned oak casks and then bottled with a light finning, when it is between four and six years old. At the time of bottling, Dow’s LBV has completed its maturation and is ready for drinking without the need for decanting. Grape varieties - Touriga Nacional, Tinta Franca, Roriz and Barroca. Tasting Notes - Excellent deep ruby colour. On the nose brimming with ripe red fruits, combined with spicy and peppery components. On the palate fresh and balanced, full bodied and with a long and lingering finish. Port FAQ
