Dow's 1924

Vintage Port

An excellent Vintage but difficult to find.

Description

A wine that on all accounts is still showing remarkably well.

Our Expert's Recommendation

"On account of the tremendous age of this wine, the occasion that you decide to pull the cork will always be momentous. It is difficult to comment further, except for the fact that Port is very resilient and can spring the odd surprise, even at this age. I would however suggest that you have a younger vintage on hand - just in case!"

Press Comments

“This has an alluring rosy nose. Extremely seductive. Really luscious for its age. Toffee and tar finish with a sweet upturn. A very aristocratic Port – fine textured”.

“One of the great underrated vintages of Port. I’ve tasted this Dow a handful of times and it is always superb. Dark brick red in color, with a ruby center and intense aromas of cherry and raisin. Full-bodied, with a sweet palate, soft tannins and a long, long cherry, grape and earth aftertaste. A joy to drink.”
