1983 Dow

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Black glass bottle. Dark colour. Appalling VA on the nose, undrinkably volatile even to the degree of tasting slightly effervescent. Not Rated. Opened 23-Feb-21.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

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

What a splendidly evocative tasting note.
