1978 Dow's Quinta do Bomfim Vintage Port

Post by Andy Velebil »

Decanted 5 hours. A medium ruby color with licorise, dried cranberries, and some heat on the nose. While there was some prominate heat, the higher acidity, anise, and spices keep this light without being lean. Not terribly complex, and probably a little past its best, this still drinks nicely.
