The Story Behind The Bottle
Habits Bottle Shop
Niepoort LBV Port 2018 comes from Niepoort, a historic family-owned port house in Portugal's Douro Valley known for producing ports with real elegance and precision. LBV, or Late Bottled Vintage, is a style that offers much of the richness of a true vintage port at a more accessible price and with less required aging.
This port shows an intensely dark, almost black color, with a nose driven by ripe blackcurrant and dark fruit. The fruit character is well integrated, and the wine's acidity gives it good structure and lift, resulting in a wine that feels youthful and vibrant while still showing real depth.
Serve this port at the end of a meal alongside dark chocolate, blue cheese, roasted nuts, or a rich fruit tart. It's also a lovely match for a simple cheese board featuring aged, salty cheeses.
Niepoort's reputation for precision and elegance carries through in this LBV, making it a great introduction to fine Douro port. Order this Late Bottled Vintage port online at Habits Bottle Shop for a rich, food-friendly dessert wine.
What To Expect In The Glass
Wine
Ways To Pour It
Neat
Served on its own in a rocks glass, letting the full character come through exactly as crafted.
On The Rocks
A single large-format ice cube slowly opens things up and softens the edges as it melts.
In A Cocktail
Works well as the backbone of a simple classic — let it do the heavy lifting.
