Half bottle
It’s a warm night so pop and decant and pour and refrigerate
99% opaque, red rim
Rich nose of ripe williams pear with underlying red fruit coulis.
The palate starts with cool blue fruits before the Dow red currant breaks in about 5 seconds later. Later, some loganberry.
The tannins still hidden until 30+ seconds on but they are there, biding their time.
Ridiculously delicious.
2017 Dow

Re: 2017 Dow
Have a case in the cellar - I'll probably only open in 20 years, but good to hear a positive tasting!
