Natalie's Score: 90/100

From the Douro wine region, Fonseca 2015 Late Bottle Vintage Port is a sweet and lush Portuguese dessert wine with just over 100 grams per litre of residual sugar and is unctuous on the palate with fleshy blackberry, chocolate covered cherries and chocolate flavours. This unfiltered port is a perfect pairing for blue cheeses, roasted nuts and dark chocolate. Drink now and for the next 10 years. LBV is bottled after spending four to six years in barrel and is ready to drink when bottled. Produced from Fonseca's own vineyards.

Port food pairings: fresh field berries in cream, Camembert, honey cake, chocolate cookies.

Reviews and Ratings

From the Douro wine region, Fonseca 2015 Late Bottle Vintage Port is unfiltered which allows the port to further age in bottle. The 2015 is a youthful port with a mouthful of dark berry, black currant, plum, nutty flavours and spice. Drink or hold to 2025. - Community Wine Reviews

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
