Tasting Notes
The 2015 Late Bottled Vintage Port is a blend of 36% Touriga Franca, 29% Touriga Nacional, 21% Tinta Roriz and 14% Tinta Barroca, bottled in May 2019 about a month before tasting, unfiltered and with a long cork. It comes in with 100 grams per liter of residual sugar. A little light, but lively and fresh, this seductive and aromatic LBV is more interesting for its complexity, structure and expression of fruit than its depth. Still, it's got enough concentration and does well with everything. The delicious finish has grip, the fruit supported by the structure. It will be interesting to see if this holds as it ages. It is certainly beautiful on many fronts. Drink date: 2019-2035. Score - 90. (Mark Squires, robertparker.com, July 11, 2019)
