86 points·Poças Vintage Port 2003
expand_moreBlueberry and black raspberry syrup aromas are found in the lively nose of the 2003 Pocas Vintage Port. An impressively grapey, primary effort with forward, satiny fruit, it reveals loads of glycerin in its inviting personality. Rich and candied, it benefited immensely from extensive contact with air. Anticipated maturity: 2025-2040.
