Product Overview
Warre's LBV is bottled without any fining or filtration after some 4 years of aging in cask. It is then matured in bottle for at least another 4 years before release. This prolonged bottle aging is crucial to the development of the superb nose and flavor which lend this Port a style and complexity very much akin to that of Vintage Port.
91 Points - Wine Advocate
"The 2002 Late Bottled Vintage Port is unfiltered and bottled with a long cork. Elegant and aromatic, this is a beautiful achievement in a very difficult vintage in Douro. Showing terrific concentration for the vintage, it has mild tannins at this point and controlled flavors laced with a touch of herbs. This is a great time to dive into this unfiltered LBV. It still has plenty of life left, but it is unlikely to get better." -MS, 10/28/16
