2009 Dow Late Bottled Vintage Port

[John M.]

Opened one hour prior to tasting. Dark purple squid ink, magenta rim. Aromas a dusty dark berry. Moderate weight and viscosity. Lots of blackberry with hints of cassiss and tar. I drank a lot of these when I first started enjoying port; Dows LBVs have a certain lush mouthfeel...these LBVs tend to be fruit bombs and this one certainly fits the profile. Dry yet sweet on the finish. A little simple yet quite enjoyable.
