The LBV category was developed to satisfy the demand for a high quality ready to drink alternative to vintage port for everyday consumption. Unlike vintage port, which is bottled after only two years in wood & ages in bottle, LBV is bottled after four to six years & is ready to drink when bottled. Rich, lightly perfumed, raspberry aroma. On the mouth; smooth, silky, deliciously fresh sweet raspberry fruit flavours. Lovely quality & intensity of fruit flavours. An attractive very fresh well balanced wine. ...
The Port is produced mainly from the Malvasia Fina & Rabigato grape varieties & is one of the major White Port brands internationally. The crisp, clean presentation in green & cream conveys modernity & reflects its versatility as a cool aperitif or sweet dessert wine. Pale colour & medium sweetness. Pleasantly fruity bouquet, typical of Port, which maintains its pale colour over a long period. ...
His Eminence's Choice, the distinguished & most famous of all the Ports produced by Delaforce, was first put on sale back in the 1930's. The label itself was originally taken from the painting purchased by Henry Delaforce in the early 1920's. The wine is carefully blended after full tasting & examination of Delaforce ports which are selected from the best areas of the Douro port region at every year's production to become reserves for His Eminence. These reserves will remain maturing in casks over many years in Vila Nova de Gaia until they reach the mellow perfection for which it has justly gained much fame. Fresh, ripe, plummy, raisin aromas. Rich, full, mouth-filling; delicious jam raisin & date flavours. Very well balanced, elegant & harmonious port wine. His Eminence's Choice is best served at room temperature or lightly chilled in the summer to enjoy the rich bouquet & taste. ...
Made in a sweet, open-knit, precocious style, Delaforce's LBV reveals a dense ruby/violet colour as well as sweet, accessible black cherry/blackberry fruit with hints of smoke, earth, & truffles.
This lush, medium to full-bodied, juicy, succulent effort will last for 15+ years. ...
