Dow’s 10 Year
The color alone says volumes about this wine. The brilliant gold and burnt orange colors in the wine reflect its powerful flavors. Hints of citrus, nutmeg, and dried fruits on the nose come through in the mouth followed by a gripping finish.
88 Points “The light ruby cast to the color indicates the fruit that’s still apparent in this wine. Sweet and silky, its date flavors integrate well with the alcohol. This is a quiet, shimmering ten-year-old for flan.” Joshua Greene, Wine & Spirits Magazine, October 2004
89 Points "Bright and beautiful honey, toffee, caramel character, with a touch of nuts. A vibrant, sweet Port of lovely, delicate structure."
James Suckling, Wine Spectator, October 21, 2002

A really nice berry fruit port wine that was very rich. Lucky enough to get a couple of bottle for Christmas and still have one for miserable days like this |
