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

2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!

What a splendidly evocative tasting note.
