2000 Dow

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Deep red in colour with a touch of bricking, opaque centre. Soft red fruit on the nose, sweet and ripe. Modest fruit on entry with generous tannins and pleasing acidity. Soft and straightforward but well balanced, leading to a dry cherry stone aftertaste and finish. 90/100. Drunk 26-Sep-16.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.
