Late Bottled Vintage

Late Bottled Vintage (LBV) is a type of port wine made from a single year's harvest, aged in barrels for about four to six years before being bottled. Unlike regular vintage port, which is bottled early and ages further in the bottle, LBV is ready to drink sooner while still offering the rich, complex flavors typical of vintage port. It provides a balance of youthful fruitiness and mature character, making it a convenient and high-quality option for those seeking a premium port without the lengthy aging process.
