It adds a layer of depth to the 2015 LBV this issue and more intensity of flavor—it's quite delicious, and the concentrated fruit is more lifted. It will age better too.

Fragrance of pure dark fruit combined with a light/wild herbal note, becoming more floral in the glass. Extremely polished in texture, chalky and smooth, but still vibrant.

The 2016 Vintage Port is a field blend with 96 grams of sugar. This is the final blend and out of cask, set to be bottled in a week or so. Sweet up front, although the paper statistics don't suggest that, this has plenty of tannic pop on the finish. Manuel Lobo, comparing to the 2015, said that the fruit was better on the 2015, while this 2016 had more muscle...
Effusive aromas of violets, roses, ripe strawberries and blackberry preserves, then powerful, tannic and concentrated on the palate. It is built for decades of aging before it hits its prime.

The palate is medium-bodied with a smooth entry, assiduously spiced with white pepper, clove and hints of marjoram towards the extended finish. Wonderful.

A medium- to full-bodied red with plum and black berry character. Medium to full body. Fully sweet with a savory finish. Drink or hold.
Pithy, delicious and beautifully saline. A mid-weighted expression that prizes phenolics as much as freshness, this is a textbook opening act.

This tapers off with tension and freshness, at the same time puckering the cheeks and forcing the mouth to water for more as perfumed inner florals slowly fade.
