1999 Dow's Colheita

Post by Thomas V »

Date: 04/03/2016

Place: The WineCompany in Copenhagen

Condition: Served at around 17 degrees Celsius, bottled in 2013

Color: Red brownish hue with orange nuances

Nose: Some initial spirits on the nose and scent of plums or prunes infused with alcohol

Note: Light body. Some burnt brown sugar initially and some cardamom and all spice. Mild and well rounded but could use a bit more character. Quite fresh and punchy. Enjoyable but not to memorable.

Info: This was part of a tasting session with Gustavo Devesas. Time for making elaborate taste notes was scarce.

Score: 89 points
