The Porto LBV 2016 of Quinta de Carvalhas embodies the excellence of fortified wines from the Douro valley, a region famous for its terraced vineyards along the riverbanks.
Made mainly with traditional grapes such as Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz, and Touriga Franca, this Late Bottled Vintage stands out for its complex structure and the elegance of ripe fruit. Aged in oak barrels for about four years, it maintains a perfect balance between freshness and depth, with notes of plum, blackberry, and sweet spices that develop harmoniously alongside slight toasted hints.
On the palate it is velvety and enveloping, with a long-lasting finish that invites a slow, contemplative sip. Perfect with aged cheeses, dark chocolate, or as an accompaniment to rich desserts, it offers a sensory experience typical of the most authentic Portuguese tradition.
