Quinta de La Rosa LBV 2017

Description: Almost a Vintage. Freshness and minerality make this the perfect port for wine lovers.

Grapes: Traditional port varieties, mainly Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Sousão, and Tinta Roriz.

Tasting Note: A very pretty and approachable LBV with enticing floral aromas and optimal freshness. A beautiful port, full of round, soft flavours paired with poise and elegance. Highly concentrated and full-bodied wine, it shows well-developed dark berries, as well as hints of dried fig and chocolate.

Winemaking: An extremely high-quality port made from some of the best wines from 2015. The port was foot trodden in granite lagares before aging in large oak ‘tonels’ for 4 years. Lightly filtered and bottled in May 2019. Ready for immediate drinking without the need for decanting.

Pairing: Aged beef. Aged cheeses – typically Stilton. Dark berry desserts.

Winemaker: Jorge Moreira
