Summary
Fonseca Late Bottled Vintage Port is a Portuguese fortified wine from Porto.
Its in-cohort standing is measured against 1,421 other fortified wines from Portugal, not against the corpus as a whole. Only 36 of its Vivino reviewers are calibrated, so the calibrated figure rests on a thin sample; a broader pool of 36 reviewers with at least two ratings feeds the raw-average track.
