Dow--Vintage 1966
Bottled by Grants of St. James's. Embossed plastic capsules. Very good appearance. Levels base of neck or better
In original cartons
Tasting Note: Several notes, several bottlings, all good. Some colour loss but rich and attractive. Only three notes since 1988, two in 1994, the first in Aspen, elegant, complete, lovely texture; fully developed, surprisingly sweet, then very good at the Symington tasting. At Dow's bicentenary tasting in 1998, a well-night perfect bottle, fragrant, very sweet yet with a Dow dry finish. Most recently: lovely, evolved, slightly spirity; very sweet for Dow, delicious, perfect now. Last noted at the Symington families' tasting in London, May 2002 ***** Now - 2015 M.B.
