1966 Dow Vintage Port

Post by John Danza »

  • 1966 Dow Porto Vintage - Portugal, Douro, Porto (3/16/2018)
    These bottles had a 24-hour decant and was served at a recent IWFS Chicago.

    Medium brick red in color. The nose was fruity with raspberry and some cassis. There was still a bit of heat that I initially thought was from the alcohol, but quickly realized it was the wine's excellent acidity showing itself. The palate was also fruity, but with the unmistakable Dow dry finish.

    This wine is in excellent shape and not showing any signs of decline, as shown by showing so well after a 24 hour decant. No rush to drink these if you have them. (94 pts.)
