Product Notes

Quinta do Vallado LBV Port is a rich and full-bodied fortified wine from one of Portugal's oldest estates. This wine is made from a blend of grape varieties grown in the historic Douro Valley region, which is known for its unique climate and soil, producing some of the world's best port wines. The LBV style, which stands for Late Bottled Vintage, is made from a single year's harvest and aged in oak barrels for a longer period than standard vintage ports. This creates a smooth, fruit-forward wine with notes of dark cherries, plums, and chocolate. It's perfect for pairing with desserts or sipping after dinner on its own. Quinta do Vallado LBV Port exemplifies the classic style and exceptional quality that Portugal's port wines are renowned for.

About the Winery

The Quinta do Vallado winery, established in 1716, is one of the oldest wineries in Portugal. It is located in the Douro Valley and is owned by the descendants of the famous Dona Antonio Adelaide Ferreira. During 1993, a high-level restructuring of the vineyards was conducted to enable the area produce high-quality flavourful grapes. The winery got its new-age cellars in 2009 and it is equipped with the latest technological advancements.
