Pocas Junior, Vintage Port 2016 (375ml)

96 points Wine Enthusiast
"Densely textured with dusty tannins and full of black-plum skin and prune flavors, this is a ripe complex wine. Its sweeter character does not spoil the great structure and dry core that will allow this exemplary wine to age. Drink from 2029."

93 points Wine Spectator
"A well-built, solidly juicy and fairly forthright Port, brimming with plum cake, blackberry paste, melted black licorice and singed apple wood notes. Good brambly grip through the finish gives this latent length. Unfolds nicely in the glass. Best from 2030 through 2045. 6,750 cases made, 2,250 cases imported."

"The 2016 Vintage Port is a field blend from old vines aged for six months in wood and 16 months in stainless steel. It comes in with 117 grams of residual sugar. This was only in bottle about ten days when seen. The color is beautiful, said one of the company's representatives. Indeed, it is full-on Vintage Port in that regard. It's not bad in other ways. Aromatic and elegant, this open nicely with a couple of hours in a glass, rounding out, filling the mouth and coating the palate. It seems big and concentrated, without being burly. This is an accessible Port-if you give it some air-say, three hours in a glass. If you do, it turns into something seductive and more sumptuous, losing most of the sharp edges. Giving it a decade or 15 years in the cellar will be a much better idea, though."
