Poças Vintage Port 2017

Poças Vintage Port 2017 is a powerful fortified wine from an outstanding Douro vintage, crafted for long-term aging. Concentrated blackberry, black cherry, violet, dark chocolate, and spice are supported by firm tannins and vibrant freshness, leading to an exceptionally long and structured finish.

Food Pairing: Pairs best with blue cheese, dark chocolate desserts, chocolate cake, walnuts, and aged hard cheeses.

92 Points - Wine Enthusiast

This is a densely textured wine that has dark tannins and a firm core. Its richness comes both from this structure and also from the ripely jammy blackberry fruits. The dry character of the wine promises plenty of aging. Drink from 2030.

91 Points - Wine Spectator

A dark, chunky, full-bodied Port, with baker's chocolate, espresso, steeped plum, fig and melted black licorice notes rolled together. The grippy finish lacks refinement, relying on a tumble of tannins, but shows excellent energy. Best from 2032 through 2050.
