New Port Glasses

Dow
1995 Vintage Port, Quinta do Bonfim
$38.99
Shane’s Notes

We recommend decanting for at least an hour which of course means that this one is really too young to drink right now. It should probably age for another 10 years. However, we still enjoyed it. It had a nice cherry, dark chocolate/almond flavor and is just beginning to develop the rich texture of a good vintage port. As is typical of Dow’s style, it was not as sweet as most vintage ports. In fact, the finish could almost be called dry. It was a pleasant way to break in our new “O” port glasses.
