1927 Dow

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

From Charles Redshaw. Identified from the branded cork. A mature brick red colour, 50% opaque. Fabulous spiced fruit nose - the prefect mulled wine with redcurrant, cranberry and cinnamon. Rich and full on the palate with generous fruit and spice. Starting to dry on the late palate. A lovely bitter-fragrant aftertaste and finish. A lovely wine starting to dry out slightly. 88/100. Consumed 15-Dec-22. Decanted 1 hour.
Top Ports in 2022: Quinta do Noval Nacional 1931. I have never drunk such a wonderful bottle of Port. I cried with joy.

2023: Fonseca 1966. There are not many better Ports.
