Graham's "LBV" Late Bottled Vintage Port 2018 - Matured in Oak Casks - 20.0% abv.


THE WINE This 2018 Late Bottled Vintage Port was produced from grapes sourced from Graham’s four vineyard estates located in various prime sites in the mountainous Douro Valley. The abundant spring rainfall replenished soil water levels and put an end to one of the longest periods of drought recorded in the Douro. August and September were very hot and dry, and although this reduced the size of the crop, it also favoured very good ripening conditions which were particularly beneficial for the Touriga Franca, a late ripening variety which delivered excellent quality and made a significant contribution to this Graham’s LBV. YEAR AND HARVEST OVERVIEW Although 2018 started off very dry, with the soils parched by the previous year’s rainfall deficit, the spring heralded abundant rain with the months between March and June all recording above-average precipitation. Soil water reserves were amply replenished, a good position to be in for the vines’ growing and ripening cycles. The wet, cool spring and generally unsettled atmospheric conditions continued into the summer and resulted in a diminishing of the crop size. Inevitably, the growth cycle of the vine was delayed by a few weeks, but a hot and dry August put maturations back on track. Climatic conditions in early September favoured an even and complete ripening of the berries with good levels of acidity that are reflected in the wines’ balance. Yields were very low, but that favoured the high quality that the wines from 2018 reveal.

Verschil tussen LBV port en Vintage port

Na een rijping van 2 (maximaal 3) jaar op vat rijpt een vintage port verder op de fles. Hierdoor kan het bij een Vintage port wel tot 20 jaar duren voordat de port zijn hoogtepunt bereikt. Wil je niet zo lang wachten dan is de Late Bottled Vintage (LBV) een goed alternatief. Een LBV Port rijpt tussen de 3 en 6 jaar op vat en kan direct na aankoop worden gedronken. Hierdoor is LBV port een prijsvriendelijk ‘Vintage’ alternatief voor iedere gelegenheid. Deze Graham's LBV port heeft geen depot in de fles omdat het bezinksel in het vat achterblijft bij het bottelen. De ontwikkeling heeft dus volledig op vat plaatsgevonden en de port zal dus ook niet meer verder rijpen op de fles. Het is een elegante port, complex van smaak en mooi in balans.

Wijn-spijs suggesties en bewaaradvies Graham's LBV port

Zoals de naam "Late Bottled Vintage" al aangeeft heeft deze LBV port langer (3-6 jaar) op houten vaten heeft gerijpt dan een Vintage port (2 jaar). Hierdoor is de port na het bottelen klaar om gedronken te worden en heeft deze ook geen bezinksel in de fles. Na het openen van de fles blijft de Graham's LBV port zo'n 6 weken goed. Wij adviseren om de geopende fles in een koelkast te bewaren hierdoor blijft de port nog langer goed. Graham's LBV past perfect bij donkere chocolade desserts en halfharde en gerijpte kazan als Cheddar en Manchego, noten en gedroogd fruit.
