Smith Woodhouse specializes in premium ports produced primarily from grapes grown in the vineyards of Quinta da Madalena, a 7 hectare property in the heart
of Rio Torto Valley, long recognized as one of hte best areas of the Douro. Produced in the traditional style, the LBV is made from the finest grapes in a single harvest, in this case 1995. After 4 years of cask aging, the wine is bottled unfined and unfiltered and aged for an additional 4 years before release. This bottle aging allows the wine to develop outstanding style and complexity, resulting in a deep purple-black port with rich mouth-filling flavors of black fruit and dark chocolate.
For serving: You should always decant LBVs with a natural cork closure. This is an indication that they are unfiltered and will throw off sediment during the bottle aging
process.
