Dow’s Vintage Port 2017 reflects the pedigree that has given Dow’s its legendary status in the fine wine world. Depth, intensity and power are the key hallmarks of this wine.
2017 saw the first ‘back-to-back’ vintage for the Symington family since Andrew James Symington first arrived in Porto in 1882. 2017 is a remarkable vintage. Not only is it a historic vintage but it was also an exceptionally dry vintage, with yields 20% below that of the ten-year average.
Quality this year can quite easily be summed up in one word: outstanding. Likened in many ways to the great vintage of 1945, this 2017 from the lodge of Dow’s has remarkable concentration, structure, and elegance. It is not only set to be a vintage for the next century but is also one of the most palatable young ports we have had the pleasure of tasting.
Fresh floral aromas combine with rockrose, a flower that grows around the hills of Senhora da Ribeira On the palate this vintage port is exceptional, offering a full-body, rich and powerful with black fruit coming to the fore. Gorgeous, ripe fruit balance the fine tannin structure. On the finish, it is typically Dow, austere and somewhat drier than many other ports. The intense fruit flavours linger long on the palate.
Try pairing Dow’s Vintage Port 2017 with chocolate desserts or cheeses such as Cheddar and Manchego.
