Lifted blackcurrant and liquorice aromas combine with floral, rock rose notes (a wildflower common in the Douro) and a subtle suggestion of mint and conifer/resinous essences. A wonderful streak of freshness and peppery seasoning is also perceptible on the nose. The palate shows intense, compact bramble fruit, which is succulent and smooth-textured. Full- bodied, with an ample structure that promises longevity. Underlying acidity provides balance and poise.

Store the bottle horizontally, ideally in a cool place with a constant temperature. Decant before serving. An excellent dessert wine to enjoy on its own or with chocolate desserts. Also, a very good match with blue cheeses.

One of the Douro Valley’s finest vineyards, Quinta do Bomfim is at the heart of Dow’s wines, having provided the main structure for its famed Vintage Ports since 1896. In non-declared years, the finest wines from the vineyard are selected for bottling as Quinta do Bomfim Vintage Port and as such they closely reflect the characteristics of this single property, whereas a ‘declared’ Dow’s Vintage expresses the house style, derived from the sum of the several vineyards from which it is made. Five generations of Symington winemakers at Bomfim have developed a style that suits the vineyard; fermentations are a little longer resulting in a drier profile that has become one of Dow’s distinctive hallmarks. The Bomfim vineyard is predominantly south facing, an aspect that favours complete and balanced grape ripening and which results in well-structured and intense, complex wines.
