A Late Bottled Vintage Port from Portugal's Douro Valley, produced by Symington Family Estates and sourced from Quinta do Bomfim and Quinta da Senhora da Ribeira.
It is made from a field blend of Touriga Franca, Touriga Nacional, Sousão, Tinta Barroca and Tinta Roriz. Grapes are trodden in modern lagares at each estate's on-site winery, then aged four to six years in seasoned oak vats before bottling.
The nose leads with bright blackberry and blueberry, followed by a piercing shaft of mint, with deeper dark plum and subtle ganache. The palate is plush, with black forest fruit, fleshy black plum, peppery tannins and fine acidity. The finish is long and layered, with tobacco and tea notes and Dow's hallmark drier finish.
Tasting Notes
Bright, exuberant blackberry and blueberry lead, followed by a piercing shaft of mint; deeper layers of dark plum and subtle ganache emerge as the wine opens.
Plush and substantial, coating the palate with black forest fruit and fleshy black plum; peppery tannins and fine acidity give structure and tension.
Long and layered, revealing tobacco and tea notes wrapped in a drier finish; tannins resolve cleanly.
