Ramos Pinto Late Bottled Vintage 2018

It is an exceptional LBV port that captures the depth and intensity of a single harvest. Made from premium Douro Valley grapes, this wine ages four to six years in oak, balancing smoothness with bold fruitiness. Ramos Pinto LBV 2018 delivers a powerful yet balanced tasting experience, making it a perfect introduction to high-quality aged ports.

On the nose, this port reveals an enticing bouquet of ripe blackberries, cherries, and plums, complemented by hints of dark chocolate, licorice, and warm spices. The rich, full-bodied palate layers dark fruit, subtle oak, and smooth tannins for a velvety mouthfeel. A touch of black pepper and cocoa adds complexity, leading to a long, satisfying finish with a lingering sweetness.

Ramos Pinto LBV is unfiltered, meaning it retains its authentic structure and aging potential. It can be enjoyed now or cellared for further development. Serve it slightly chilled with dark chocolate desserts, aged cheeses, or simply on its own for a luxurious experience. This LBV port suits both seasoned enthusiasts and newcomers exploring Portuguese fortified wines.
