1975 Dows Vintage Port
Posted: 10:56 Mon 06 Jun 2011
I received this wine as part of a job lot. Thankfully only the one.
Opened with some bottle stink. Full tawny colour. Cleared up after a few hours to provide almonds and some caramel. Rancio on the finish. No heat as feared from other reports but not a patch on a good 20 year old tawny. 24 hours hours on and it has decayed. I have a 1975 Warres that needs to be next I expect.
