Porto LBV
Productfiche 2010
TASTING NOTES
Very dense, dark red colour. Intense aroma with hints of black berry preserve and spices. In the mouth very rich and concentrated with plenty of flavours and a long finish, good structured wine with huge bottle aging potential. Since this wine was bottled without stabilisation or filtration, this port wine will show sediments growing older. To avoid these sediments best decant before serving.
