Dow's 2007 Vintage Port in the Premier League

Two of the most respected tasters in Port have weighed in on the recently released 2007 Vintage Ports and based on their scores, it is clear that Graham’s, Dow’s and Warre’s are the premier wines of the Vintage.

Tasting note by James Suckling, May 6th 2009:
Intense aromas of blackberry, wet earth and grape follow through to a full body, with medium-to-light sweetness, very big tannins and a mouth filling finish. Round and delicious already. Has the stuffing to age. Powerful.
Score: 94-97

Tasting note by Jancis Robinson, May 21st 2009:
Very dark and brooding to look at. Dry and complex with some notes of vegetation on the nose. Really rather polished and superior. Masses of extract, not an awful lot of sugar, but refinement and breed. If it were a person it would definitely be a man. In a pin striped suit (as this taster is today, funnily enough). Clean peppermint finish.
Score: 18 Drink 2020-35
