Dow's Port - Late Bottled Vintage - James R. Dow

We Say:
Dow’s Late Bottled Vintage (LBV) Port is a rich and expressive wine made from grapes harvested in a single vintage year and aged in oak barrels longer than traditional vintage ports. The 2013 edition reflects the house’s signature style—structured, elegant, and full of depth. Bottled unfiltered to preserve its character, it’s ideal for pairing with cheese, chocolate, or enjoyed on its own.

Sensory Profile:
The nose offers stewed plums, dark chocolate, cinnamon, and oak spice. On the palate, it’s full-bodied and velvety, with layers of ripe black fruits, warming spice, and a touch of liquorice. The finish is long and smooth, with lingering notes of cocoa and dried fig.
