Description

Dow s has been producing top Ports for over two centuries. One of the first companies to establish its own vineyards, Dow s acquired Senhora da Ribeira, located in the remote Upper Douro, in 1890 and Bomfim, which lies in the heart of Alto Douro, in 1896. Their respective wines, Ribeira with its soft fruit and violet aromas, and Bomfim with its concentrated intensity, provide the backbone to the recognized drier style of Dow s Ports. In 1912, Andrew James Symington became a partner in Dow s and today, five members of the fourth generation Symington family own and manage this historic house.Light amber and tawny color, showing mature raisiny fruit aromas with hintsof honey and caramel. Dow’s Twenty Years Old Tawny has a rich and nuttypalate, with wonderful balance. A clean crisp finish and a soft lingeringaftertaste make this an unforgettable Port on any occasion.Dow’s Twenty Years Old Tawny pairs extremely well with nuts, dried fruitsand fruitcake, but is also delicious as an accompaniment to vanilla ice creamor crème brûlée. Serve slightly chilled to appreciate the full complexity andsensuous pleasure of this wine.
