March 17, 2019 - Raisins de corinthe, pas beaucoup de sucre perceptible sur la langue. Les fruits commence à se confire. Très bien.

February 23, 2018 - I always like Dows vintage ports. This shows nice fruit, balanced sweetness and alcohol. Nice finish. Not as good as 2011 but still darn good.

January 2, 2014 - Really quite good. Not the full weight and concentration of the top shelf VP but at this age, some nice secondary notes are starting to appear. Figgy pudding, berry kirsch, mocha with smooth texture and enough acidic backbone to stay clean and fresh. Recommend.
