Opinions on a Dow's Vertical

Purchasing a new home and was thinking I could get a few extras for the home if I created a 2000s Dow's Vintage Port Vertical. One bottle each of 2000, 2003, 2007 and 2011. I have enough of each that losing one bottle of each would hardly be noticed. The question I pose is: what do you think a fair ...

Re: Dow's 2007 vs 2011

Despite Owen's (LG Trotter) advice to try Fonseca 1985, I would actually suggest the Taylor 1985 as the mature port to try to see if you like older port. While this isn't the best of mature ports, it is easy to get hold of and gives a good idea of whether you'd like to get more into mature port. If...

Re: Dow's 2007 vs 2011

Thanks for the advice. Here in the states and particularly in Pennsylvania, they make it as hard as possible to find good deals. The state owns and runs all liquor stores so there is no price shopping. On top of that not all stores that are online can/will ship to PA. So the search is usually quite ...

Re: Dow's 2007 vs 2011

Thanks and glad I found this forum. My intention is to cellar the regular size and enjoy the halves on occasion. My true intention is to enjoy one 2011 in my 40th birthday (2021) and one on my 50th (2031) while drinking my halves whenever I need a fix. Sounds like if I want something sooner, then I ...

Dow's 2007 vs 2011

With the 2011 so hard to find, would it make sense to buy up the 2007 which I can find. Thoughts on how they compare? Thanks for your help.

PS. I do have 2 full and 2 half 2011's but no 2007 so the obvious answer is yes but more looking for thoughts on how they compare.
