2015 Quinta do Crasto LBV

Crasto 2015 LBV. Dark red, 95% opaque. Quite a dry LBV, with red grape, and green herbs, maybe even basil, and a touch of spearmint. Dryness persists to the still-full ending, which is long and full. This is a solid LBV, which could be drunk in quantity — by me, a much larger quantity than the online BFT standard pour — but is for those preferring drier. Usually I drink sweeter, but I want some of these. www.QuintaDoCrasto.pt

Is this conforming to the Quinta do Noval naming convention (i.e. by “Crasto” it means wines not necessary from the Quinta)?
