Like Vintage Port, LBV is a wine of a single year but it is not a 'declared' Vintage Port. Whereas Vintage Port spends only two years in casks and then matures in bottle, LBV is aged solely in cask and then bottled at between four and six years old. At the time of bottling it has completed its maturation and is ready for drinking without the need for decanting. Graham's LBV has much of the rich full fruity flavour and 'grip' of Vintage Port, combining this with a softness gained through oak ageing. (6 x 75 cl)

Dow's Crusted Port Description: The wines used for Dow's Crusted Port come principally from the company's two prime vineyards, Quinta do Bomfim and Quinta da Senhora da Ribeira. . Dow's Crusted is a blend of excellent young ports from two or three harvests, bottled without any fining or filtration. The Port was then aged in bottle in the Dow's cellars in Portugal for three years before being offered for sale. Crusted Port derives its name from the fact, that exactly like Vintage Port it will throw a 'crust' or natural deposit with bottle age. As with Vintage Port the wine should be stored lying down and will require decanting prior to serving.. This Crusted Port is a deep dark red colour, while on the nose concentrated and rich aromas of cherry fruit abound with hints of spices also evident. On the palate it is firm and with great depth, excellent grip and a long finish. (12 x 75 cl) Price: £179.88

Rozes White Port Description: In 1855, Ostende Rozes, a fine wine trader in Bordeaux, established the Rozes house. The reputation of the firm's Portwines spread due to their quality. Ostende's son, Edmond Rozes, created the Rozes Portwine brand and was largely responsible for its unique style. Here he created a special, thickset bottle, which is now the brand's symbol and emblem all over the world. After more than 120 years of family ownership, and other successive owners, the firm was acquired by Vranken Monopole in 1999. Rozes differs considerably from the English and Portuguese portwine houses. True to their Bordeaux heritage, Rozes Portwines are elegant, complex and balanced, less fruity and tannic than those of the English style and more generous and richer than those of the Portuguese producers. Produced in the oldest AOC of all, Quinta de Monsul, the Rozes estate in the Douro, allows complete control of pressing, storing and ageing, right from the harvest. The grapes are selected from amongst the very best vineyards in the Douro valley, while the reputation of the Rozes name means that there is a dedicated commitment to express all of the intensity, richness and complexity of each varietal. Rozes White Port is made of white grapes and has been matured in oak. This has produced a burnished gold coloured port with a nose of luscious candied fruit and raisin flavours. The palate is round, generous and yet lively, complemented by the clean and smooth finish. (6 x 75 cl) Price: £61.48
