Description of Porto LBV

Estate

Quinta Do Pessegueiro is a well-known estate in the Porto region, recognized for its high-quality Port wines. It benefits from a distinctive terroir that imparts a typical expression and rich aromatic profile to the wines.

Vineyard

Located in the Portos region, the Quinta Do Pessegueiro vineyard stretches over steep hillsides ideal for traditional Port vine cultivation. The oceanic climate moderates grape ripening, promoting an optimal balance between acidity and maturity.

Wine

This red Port displays strong intensity, marked by a rich aromatic concentration of ripe black fruits and spicy notes characteristic of Quinta Do Pessegueiro style. The palate is generous yet elegant, typical of a quality Port made for good aging potential.

Vintage

The 2018 vintage was favorable in the Porto region, with a hot summer that allowed optimal grape ripening, ensuring rich aromatic concentration and fine tannic structure.

Vinification & Aging

The winemaking follows regional traditions, including controlled fermentation followed by aging in Portuguese oak barrels, which adds subtle wood sweetness. This aging helps the wine gain complexity while preserving fruit freshness.
