This is wine produced from a single year of exceptional quality, aged in wood and bottled between the fourth and the sixth year after harvest. It does not require ageing in the bottle and is perfect for those who want to appreciate the complex characteristics of vintages without having to wait for the Port to age. This wine can be consumed immediately but will continue to mature in the bottle. Characteristics are a deep ruby colour, rounded body and aromas of blackberries and pepper. If drunk young the LBV does not require decanting but after time it will throw off naturally occurring sediment and would benefit from careful decanting. Ideal on its own, it also combines well with strong cheeses and dried fruits. (6 x 75 cl)

Quinta is the Portuguese word for vineyard and thus, whenever a vintage port has the word quinta, one can be guaranteed that grapes come entirely from this place. Quinta da Foz is situated in the heart of Port Wine country with steep terraced slopes reaching all the way down to the Douro River. This special vintage has a deep, dark inky colour. Its rich bouquet is predominantly of forest fruits, notably ripe plums and prunes, with touches of cocoa and spices. On tasting it is mature, complex, full and rounded. Using only the best grapes of the 1986 harvest, this vintage port was aged for two years in fine oak vats before bottling. Ready to drink now, it will continue to mature for decades . As vintage port forms a natural deposit, stand the bottle upright for a couple of hours before careful decanting. This is a good vintage to have after a good dinner accompanied by a rich fruit tart or with mature cheeses (6 x 75 cl)
