Port Wine Dows Vintage 2005 Quinta do Bomfim 75cl.

When young, Bomfim wines are purple-black, austere, complex and intensely concentrated they are characterised by very fine peppery tannins. Over the centuries, the winemakers at Bomfim have evolved a style that suits this particular vineyard fermentations are a little longer, resulting in a drier Port Wine that has become the hallmark of Dow?s. The grapes are normally extremely ripe at the time of picking, a direct result of the low-lying position of the main vineyard. Spice and pepper balance the black chocolate flavours and these are very evident in all Bomfim Ports. Abundant fruit flavours with hints of maple, raisins and ripe blackberries give elegance and poise to this wine. The very high percentage of Touriga Franca and Touriga Nacional planted on the estate result in the powerful aromas of mint and violets on the finest Ports from Bomfim.
