For over two centuries the name of Dow has been associated with some of the finest Vintage Port from the vineyards of the Upper Douro Valley. Dow’s typically produce superbly concentrated wines that are intense and tannic when young maturing towards a superlative racy elegance with age and scented with violet and mint aromas. Dow’s attractive and distinctive drier finish is the recognisable hallmark of the wines from this great Port house and has won the producer a loyal allegiance of advocates.
Dow’s Quinta do Bomfim 2010 is a single-vineyard blend from one of the Douro Valley’s finest vineyards located right at the centre of the ‘Cima Corgo’. The wines from this plot have been used in Dow’s Vintage Port since it was acquired in 1896. In good years when Dow’s doesn’t ‘declare’ a Vintage the best Ports of Quinta do Bomfim are bottled together such as was the case in 2010. Bomfim is a classic ‘River Quinta’ that displays wonderful balance. Expect rich black cherry and berry fruits on the palate accompanied by notes of prunes fruitcake black pepper worn leather dark chocolate cigar and seashell minerality. Power and finesse all in one. Consider pairing with chocolate desserts fruitcake and blue cheeses like creamy Stilton or Roquefort.
Dow’s – owned by the Symington family – ranks amongst Port’s most famous names and is renowned for its powerhouse style. Their coveted releases use grapes from the phenomenal Quinta do Bomfim vineyard and tend to be drier and exceptionally long-lived. The Symington family are trusted hands because they are the world’s leading producer of premium Port and the biggest vineyard owner in the Douro Valley – a UNESCO World Heritage Site of jaw-dropping beauty. The company is also B-Corp Certified which means they are also on it when it comes to the environment sustainability their people their supply chain and giving back to the community.
