Re: 1983 Dow
Something not right about the nose and the palate less than good. Something bacteriological maybe?

Re: 1983 Dow
Pale rim. Light all the way through.
Nose a bit odd.
On the palate - 'wow, that's absolutely horrid', I said.
Something wrong, Bacteriological problem is my guess.

Re: 1983 Dow
D83. Red-brown, 35% opaque. Dry; harmless; long but not good. So less bad than others thought: this is not a recommendation.
Re: 1983 Dow
Good red colour and that was the best thing about it, rubbery not nice.

E: Red tending to light red at the rim.
N: A strange nose which I noted as “meaty”.
P: Imagine blue cheese bended with a dash of jam.
Not nice at all.

Re: 1983 Dow
40% opacity, mature red. Nose has red fruit but masked by something metallic. Palate a little thin and simple, red fruit.
