Food Pairing

Food Pairing Suggestions

Here are a few serving suggestions and pairing ideas to help you get the most from this wine, whether you’re enjoying it with food or simply savouring it on its own.

Serve lightly chilled (16–18 °C) to reveal aromatic layers and smooth texture. Excellent with indulgent chocolate desserts and berry‑fruited tarts, where its dark fruit intensity complements richness. Enjoy with robust cheeses such as Stilton or aged Cheddar with the structure creating a delightful contrast.

Sandeman Unfiltered LBV Port FAQs

What style is this and how sweet/dry is it?

Richer and structured, with a natural sweetness balanced by lively acidity and integrated tannins. It’s smooth and expressive

How is it made and why is it unfiltered?

Made from grapes harvested in a single vintage, fermented and fortified with grape spirit to retain natural sweetness. After ageing for around four years in oak casks, it is bottled without filtration. This is a traditional method that preserves texture, depth and aromatic complexity, though it may lead to sediment forming over time.

Which grapes are used in this Port?

Like most Douro LBVs, this wine is typically blended from classic Douro red grape varieties such as Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz and Tinta Barroca, chosen for their intensity, structure and ability to age gracefully.

Can it age further?

Yes, while ready to enjoy now, this unfiltered LBV Port will continue to evolve in bottle. With appropriate storage in a cool, dark place, it can develop additional nuance and complexity over the next 10–15 years.

Store bottles horizontally in a stable, cool, dark environment. After opening, re‑cork and refrigerate; the wine will remain enjoyable for several weeks thanks to its concentration and structure.
