Dow's 1994 Vintage Porto

Deep red.

Brandy/Frangelico dominant nose, pudding fruit underneath.

Huge palate impression that is not crazy sweet. Alcohol reasonably integrated. Deep, but not showing its full hand yet. All nut liqueur today.


Wet week here, coolish and humid. So it was time for Porto - sneak preview to Fall/Winter.

Day 3 - This really hasn't changed - I'm thinking this is an off bottle. Closer to Tawny in style. Other bottles have been mind-bendingly complex.


$45? (375mL)
