Tasting Profile: Deep purple black with a narrow magenta rim. High notes of pure, intense woodland fruit with lively accents of green apple, fresh plum and raspberry. Although the keynotes are refinement and poise, the wine displays the restrained vigour and stamina that are the hallmarks of the Taylor Fladgate style.

Grape: Tinta Barroca, Tinta Francisca, Tinta Roriz, Tinto Cão and Touriga Nacional.

Serving Tips: The wine benefits from being served between 16ºC to 18ºC. Excellent with fully flavoured cheeses, especially blue cheeses such as Stilton or Roquefort. It is also delicious with desserts made with chocolate or berry fruits.

Winemaking: Taylor Fladgate were pioneers of the LBV category and is regarded as the finest exponent of it. Developed to satisfy the demand for a high quality ready-to-drink alternative to Vintage Port for everyday consumption. Unlike Vintage Port, which is bottled after only two years in wood and ages in bottle, LBV is bottled after four to six years and is ready to drink when bottled.
