WINEMAKER’S NOTES:
Dow’s Aged Tawnies are well known for their remarkable raisiny, dried fruit flavors, exquisite creamy texture and an exceptionally long, lingering finish. Dow’s Aged Tawny Ports are made exclusively from grapes sourced at “A” classified vineyards (the highest). This enviable position is reflected in the excellent quality and consistency of the style evident in Dow’s Aged Tawnies. These Tawnies are aged in oak barrels for many years then blended to produce the finest representation of the year desired.
A superb complexity with a concentrated and nutty nose. Lingering finish balances nutty oak and raisin fruit flavors.
PAIRING SUGGESTIONS:
Dow’s 30 & 40 Year Old Tawny Port are best enjoyed on their own – they are an experience in themselves.
Port is best served in classic Port wine glassware or white wine glasses. Avoid cordial or liqueur glasses as they are too small to fully appreciate the wine’s aromas.

“A superbly dense, concentrated wine so rich in flavor that it almost has a brooding, dark quality.” -Roger Voss, August 2006
