Product information "Van Zellers VZ Late Bottled Vintage Porto 2016"

VZ Late Bottled Vintage Porto flows into the glass in a deep ruby red and exudes aromas of black cherries, cassis, raspberries and cedar spice with a hint of floral notes. The palate is elegant and perfectly balanced with velvety tannins and a very long and fruity finish.

Treatment in the cellar

After harvesting by hand, the grapes were transported to the cellar in small crates. After sorting, they were crushed by foot in the whole bunch with the addition of a part of brandy in the traditional way in Lagares. Fermentation took place and was finished at the right moment with the addition of the rest of the brandy. The Porto matured for 18 to 24 months in very old, previously used wooden barrels, and small stainless steel barrels.
