(Port) Wine of the month April 2024: Dow Vintage Port 1955

At an almost complete vertical tasting of Dows Vintage Ports of the years 1890 to 1997, one fabulous Port really stuck out of the crowd. Although I had tasted this Port many times, obviously never from a perfect botte: Dark-red color with orange hints and a tiny rim. Complex bouquet with intense chocolate, white chocolate, pepper and tobacco leaves, very powerful. The palate also revealed an intense balance of coffee, malt and chocolate. Long, rich and balanced aftertaste. 20/20
