Is LBV Porto a good wine?
Tasting profile
A bold, very sweet LBV port that reviewers describe as well balanced and explosive on the palate, with dark fruit notes of black raisin, dried blackberry, ripe blackberry, cherry and plum alongside caramel, date and jam accents. The body is powerful yet easy-drinking, with warming, slightly peppery alcohol and only faint wood, pairing well with strong cheese and dark chocolate.
