Senhora do Convento Late Bottled Vintage 2012 – Kranemann

Senhora do Convento Late Bottled Vintage 2012 from Kranemann is a classic and powerful LBV Port from the heart of the Douro. It offers intensity, depth and silky elegance in perfect balance – a port created for both the discerning consumer and for those who want true Portuguese character in the glass.

This Late Bottled Vintage was harvested in 2012 and aged for a full 4 years in oak barrels before being bottled in 2016. The result is a harmonious and rounded port with ripe fruit, structure and complexity. The grapes come from approximately 30-year-old vines in the Douro Valley, where the warm climate and steep slate slopes create optimal conditions for concentrated and aromatic grapes.

Senhora do Convento LBV 2012 is an ideal choice for cheeses, dark chocolate, berry desserts – or simply as a luxurious after-dinner glass. It delivers everything you expect from a quality LBV Port: richness, fruit, spice and a long, lingering finish.
