2000 Dow Vintage Port

[John M.]

2000 Dows VP. Decant 23 hours. Taking one for the team and there are no recent TNs. Ruby red color but dense with purplish core. The nose ekes out vanilla, sweet dark fruit to raisin, hint of cocoa. Most pronounced cranberry flavor up front and slightly awkward overall--other flavors of chocolate, dry cherry, a little floral and grape. Not too deep in the flavor profile; this wine has been evolving and headed in the right direction. Group Avg 90.3 pts.
