| 19.0 / 20 |
Region: Porto
Country: Portugal
The 1980 Dow's vintage is rumored to be one of the secret best vintage ports in recent years. Although the year was not an excellent Port Vintage year, it still brought to the world some excellent wines. Like this one. Red in color, it does not show its age. The nose has notes of cocoa, almonds and sweetness, like honey or caramel. The mouth is intense, complex, with a lot of red fruit and alcohol. Not very sweet, it still has a great acidity, telling us it can and will grow for some more years.
I would try this one with something like a pumpkin or orange pie.
Or by itself.
