2019 Taylor Fladgate LBV Port, Douro, Portugal

ABOUT THIS WINE

Sourced from Taylor Fladgate’s own vineyards and top-rated sites in the Douro Valley, the 2019 LBV is a premium expression of this classic style. Made predominantly from Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, and Tinta Barroca, this Port is vinified in temperature-controlled stainless steel and traditional lagares for optimal extraction. Aged for four to six years in large oak vats, it develops smooth complexity while preserving its deep fruit character. Unlike many LBVs, Taylor Fladgate’s version is traditionally bottled unfiltered, allowing it to mature further in the bottle. This wine is perfect for pairing with blue cheese, dark chocolate, or nut-based desserts.
