2024 Dow

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

A walkaround tasting of cask samples at the Montrachet Wines EP tasting of 2025 Bordeaux on 29 April 2026.

Dow 2024. Dark purple colour, opaque centre. A complex nose combining black damson fruit with a sweet rose petal perfume. A lovely texture on the palate where the plumpness of the wine shows nicely. Gentle tannins highlight the perfume of the fruit. A lovely expression of the vintage. 93-95/100.

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

2026: DR Very Old White, Graham Stone Terraces 2011, Quevedo Branco 1986 b.2026
