2009 Dow Quinta da Senhora da Ribeira

Post by g-man »

Tasting at Graham's lodge on May 11th, 2011

A spicy primal nose showing some wet tobacco.

Dark powdered chocolate with some dusty and spicy plums back this medium/full bodied wine.

The tannins are soft on the finish, but with some mastication, they really lock down.

A nice 'dryer' style port but a touch straight forward now.

88-91.
