It is aged in large vats, oak casks or stainless steel tanks so that the oxidative evolution is extremely slow. LBV is bottled between 31st July of the fourth year and 31st December of the sixth year after harvesting. The Late Bottled Vintage category also includes Bottle Matured Port. This Port is of high quality, and ages in bottle for at least three years and may therefore create a deposit.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c3aeac9 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"c3aeac9\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3de9f01 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"3de9f01\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c7171d9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"c7171d9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Crusted\n\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fdc7a0d e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"fdc7a0d\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6ade354 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6ade354\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>High quality Port wine.
