From the historic cellars of Real Companhia Velha comes the Royal Oporto Late Bottled Vintage 2017, a late bottled vintage that perfectly captures the elegance and depth of one of the Douro’s finest years.

This unfiltered port is made using traditional foot treading and aged for four to six years in oak before bottling, allowing it to develop richness and harmony. Deep ruby in the glass, it opens with notes of blackberry, blackcurrant, and spiced plum, followed by subtle layers of dark chocolate and vanilla.

A perfect balance between structure and softness, this LBV is delicious now but will continue to evolve over time. A fantastic companion to strong cheeses, rich desserts or a contemplative evening pour.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: Aromas of ripe dark fruits, spice box, and hints of woodsmoke.

• Palate: Lush and structured with black cherry, fig, and cocoa notes.

• Finish: Lingering and luxurious with a gentle tannic grip.
