1977 Dow Porto Vintage

Community Tasting Note

91 Points

Monday, June 10, 2013 - Spontaneous decision, so popped and poured. Violet-purple color. Nose of sweet plum, menthol, raspberry, heat. Deep plum flavor with soy and sweetness rounding out each sip. Alcohol noticeable but not too overt. Finish was only moderately long. Decant next time.

    Alas, no. Clearly I need to gain some insight into preparing to drink vintage port! Thanks for the suggestion.

    Cheers,
    Doug
