Details
LBV 2017 is a traditional Late Bottled Vintage, unfiltered, without any kind of treatment, thus preserving all the fruit as well as its great ageing potential. An intense, young and dense red. Fresh aromas of raspberry and blueberry.
Winemaker notes
A beautifully intense red in colour, young and dense. Fresh aromas of raspberry and blueberry refined with a citric touch of bergamot and soft violet notes. In the mouth it is fresh, with the pureness of intense fruit, and prominent aromas of red berries and cherries, fresh lavender notes and a rich finish of chocolate and raspberry. Succulent tannins and remarkable acidity which in turn provide freshness and balance followed by a long finish.
2017
Decanter 95: A regular medal winner at DWWA, this is a traditional LBV from an excellent year. Foot-trodden aged for years in wood before bottling without filtration. This wine has power and depth, with fresh, tight-knit fruit and gentle peppery-spicy grip. It already shows considerable floral finesse but will age and soften in bottle if laid down for another five years.
