Dow 1960
Douro
In original wooden case. Vintage embossed on shoulder of bottle.
Tasting note: In the Symington tasting room. Clear orange red color. Sweet seductive fresh nose, showing some age only now. Dried raisiny aromas over spicy garrique and leather tones. Touch balsamic. The nose reminded me of well matured high quality claret. Fine nose. Quite sweet attack of taste, especially for Dow which tends to be a fraction drier than other ports. Mouth-filling rich smooth structure, suave silky mid-palate. Focused. On the finish some ripened alcohol, in balance with a softly styled texture. Good length. A well-defined vintage port of elegance and undeniable charm. Love this 1960. July 2017. EV.
