Product Notes

Barros LBV Port wine is a refined and full-bodied Portuguese delight with a deep ruby hue. Its bouquet boasts rich blackberry and blackcurrant notes, perfectly balanced with nuances of spice and a hint of balsamic. The palate enjoys a robust yet smooth richness, impeccably complemented by a lasting, gratifying finish. Matured for four to six years in oak casks, this Late Bottled Vintage is an elegant expression of the Douro region's singular terroir. Offering complexity and sophistication, it's fantastic when paired with strong cheeses, chocolate desserts, or savoured on its own. Barros LBV is truly a memorable indulgence.

Tasting Notes

Aromas of fresh fruit and red berries are accompanied by subtle sensations of mint and orange blossom. Firm, elegant tannins envelope the palate, leaving the flavours of fresh red fruit and spices through to a sweet and elegant finish. Serve with chocolate and pear millefeuille or a selection of hard cheeses.
