Dows 10 Year Old Tawny Port Overview

Dows 10 Year Old Tawny Port

A classic expression of the house’s restrained, drier style, drawn from carefully selected reserve wines aged in seasoned oak at the Dow’s lodges in Vila Nova de Gaia. It balances maturity with freshness, offering a refined introduction to aged tawny Port while retaining clarity of fruit and structural precision.

• Nose: Harmoniously combine subtle wood characteristics with the vibrant essence of original fruit flavours.
• Palate: Boasts a rich russet hue and delightful aromas of red cherries and almonds.
• Finish: Culminating in a dry finish.
