Pocas LBV 2020 Port
Pocas LBV 2018 is a wonderful Late Bottled Vintage Port, which shows power, complexity and elegance all in one bottle.
WHAT DOES LBV (LATE BOTTLED VINTAGE) MEAN?
A late bottled vintage is a vintage Port that was bottled after four years (explains the late bottle bit in the name). This is done to give it more time to develop complexity. It is then usually filtered and fined and is meant to be ready to drink upon release. You can get different levels of LBV, so some will be released almost immediately (normally to supermarkets) but others will be allowed more time to age in the bottle before release, giving it more complexity.
WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO SAY JAMES?
I'm saying that this is a very good LBV. It offers more quality and complexity than regular ports but doesn't cost as much as a vintage or a colheita.

TASTING NOTES:
The striking aroma of Pocas LBV 2018 Port seduces you with hints of ripe red fruits, fruit and berry compote and flowers, flavoured with herbal and menthol notes.
On the palate, this Port offers full and rich texture. It's powerful but is nice and balanced with sweetness that integrates perfectly
