Touriga Francesa, Touriga Nacional and Tinta Roriz
Portugal, Douro Valley
Douro Valley is a region centred on the Douro region, upstream from Porto in the north of Portugal. It is famed for Port and the first mention of Port wine was all the way back in 1675.
2016 – and ready to drink! Because LBV Port spends more time in the barrel before being bottled, it can be drunk much sooner than Vintage Ports.
Delaforce was founded in 1834, when John Fleurriet Delaforce was asked by his London employer to set up a new Port wine company. Over the years Delaforce has developed a reputation for its blending and ageing skills, and now they are one of the most respected Port wine companies.
The northern Portuguese sunshine is very important in this Port, ripening the grapes and making sure they are full to the brim with delicious fruit flavours. The wine then gets 5 years in oak to age gracefully, so by the time it gets into a bottle, it is ready to enjoy.
CHEESE. Blue cheese, mature cheddar. Lots of cheese. And if you want to do something a bit different, nuts and chocolate desserts work like magic too.
