1997 Dow Porto Vintage (750ml)

"95 out of 100...Warm and inviting, with a worn leather feel to the mix of dried anise, espresso, bittersweet cocoa, steeped fig and mulled currant notes, which move seamlessly together through the buckwheat-edged finish. There's plenty here to like now, but this has ample energy for additional development.—1997 Vintage Port retrospective (January 2017). Best from 2020 through 2035. 10,000 cases made." - James Molesworth, Wine Spectator
