1996 Dow Quinta do Bomfim Vintage Port

Post by DRT »

Decanted 3 Hours
Very dark with a lovely blackcurrant nose. Medium weight, a bit of a fruit bomb which is smooth, dry and very tannic. A decent finish with some anicede.

This is not a massive wine but it is still way too young for my taste. My other 6 will be going off to storage for 5 years or so.

Score: 5-7
