CHURCHILL’S LATE BOTTLED VINTAGE PORT, 2011
Churchill Graham, Vila Nova de Gaia, Portugal
Touriga Nacional, Tinta Franca, Tinta Roriz
The LBV is a rich concentrated port from one good harvest which has been aged for 4 years in wood. It has been bottled without any filtration to allow the port to continue to develop in the bottle. After 2 more years in bottle it is then released for sale. It is renowned for being full bodied, well balanced with deep plummy fruit, big tannins and superb structure.
