The winemaking and ageing methods were chosen to match the selection of wines which make up the LBV: full-bodied red Ports stemming from a single vintage. LBV or Late Bottled Vintage is a category of Port wines which became popular in the 60s, filling the gap between Ruby and Vintage Ports. The extended ageing period of the LBV allows it to show a rounder and mature character –this wine can therefore be enjoyed young although these wines can be matured further for decades.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eProducer\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eNiepoort has been an independent family business since its creation in 1842. Today it isled by the fifth generation, Dirk Niepoort, supported by his sons Daniel and Marco. Dirk has been a relentless innovator and creative throughout his time at Niepoort. One of his early priorities was to purchase parcels of old, steep (and often north facing) vineyards in the Douro to give greater control over supply. Quinta de Napoles was purchased in 1987 with thirty hectares and Quinta do Carril followed in 1988 with nine hectares. Niepoort now own over eighty hectares of vineyards in the Douro, all farmed organically.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003csub\u003eCountry: Portugal | Region: Douro | Alcohol: 19% | Grapes: \u003cspan\u003eField Blend | Organic\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/sub\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Halo Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57539059188087,"sku":"15168","price":64.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0356\/6409\/files\/IMG_3716_eb8a9d15-d9d6-4f5f-a832-6f4c9c065804.jpg?v=1791630659","url":"https:\/\/www.standrewswine.co.uk\/products\/niepoort-lbv-2013-magnum-150cl","provider":"St Andrews Wine Company Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
