1999 Dow’s LBV Port greek brandy

1999 Dow’s LBV Port greek brandyThis was an easy drinking port. Nice and raisiny (paired pretty nicely with a sticky date cake). Brick color with violet nuances. It is a wine dominated by notes of black fruit, plums and cherries, combined with notes of tea and spices. Tannins soft and sweet, combine with a sober and firm acidity.

the palate is rich and honeyed

Made by Italy's foremost women winemakers

but this one is just perfect

A lingering aftertaste

getting quite peppery (white pepper) with also a little cactus juice

without being jammy

Finish: Long with more juniper

Nose On the nose

But not much is heard of Denis-Mounié anymore

this is one of just 197 bottles that comes in a wooden presentation case complete with signed COA

Very sumptuous and juicy on the palate without being heavy

Colour: Gold
