Varietal- Touriga Franca, Touriga Nacional, Sousao

Port, Portugal

Wine Advocate 92 points - The 2013 Late Bottled Vintage Port is a traditional LBV, unfiltered and bottled with a long cork in 2017.It comes in with 95 grams per liter ofresidual sugar. When I saw this the first time around, when it was not quite bottled, it seemed rather fruity and forward for a relatively dry

LBV. With some time in the bottle, that has changed, as I expected. It shows beautiful structure now, real but controlled tannins. The fruit

has dried a little to give this a somewhat sterner feel, but its exuberant beginnings are nicely replaced by a more nuanced finish laced

with blackberries and dried herbs. There are some citrus aromatics up front too. This should develop more over the next 5-10 years and

hold for another decade or more beyond that, without problem. This is another fine LBV from Ramos Pinto.. April/2018
