Berry's Own Crusted?

Post by RonnieRoots »

I found a lone bottle of Berry's Own Crusted Port (bottled 2004) at Dubai Duty Free. Price was decent, so the decision was easy. :) According to the label, it is produced by Dow, but I don't know if it's the same blend as Dow's Crusted. I have never tasted a Berry's Own Crusted, nor have I seen it before. Can't find any TN's on it here or elsewhere either. Did anyone ever taste it?

I have had a lot of the BBR 02 crusted (was my first "house" port along with Noval 03 lbv - both equally enjoyable to me) and i was told that the blend was exactly the same as the Dow bottlings.

Link to some brief notes on the 04 crusted when a few of us tried it at the BBR port-walk in December.
