Dow's 2000 LBV

Very dark and intense ruby colour. Very fruity on the nose, with black fruit aromas making a strong presence. Spicy notes also coming through. On the palate it is a big-hearted wine, full of grip and beautifully blanced. Lots of fruit. Long and lasting finish, but drier than most other Ports (the dry finish seems to be a characteristic of Dow's Ports in general).
