A veteran collector of over 30 years, this consignor began his journey in the early 1990s while working at The Wine Establishment in Toronto. His collection was primarily sourced through the LCBO, MLCC, and the Chicago Wine Company, supplemented by a position on the Harlan Estate mailing list. Each bottle has been professionally maintained in a custom Genuwine Cellars home system, ensuring impeccable storage conditions since acquisition.
2007 Dow's Vintage Port from this lot has the following scores - Wine Spectator 100 points, James Suckling 100 points. This is the tasting note for 2007 Dow's Vintage Port from Robert Parker - with a score of 94 points. The 2007 Dow’s Vintage Port is one of the stars of the vintage. A glass-coating opaque purple color, it offers up an already complex bouquet of mineral, pencil lead, licorice, spice box, and assorted black fruits. On the palate it is quite massive, slightly dry in the house style, and packed with fruit. It has the structure to be one of the long distance runners of the vintage taking as much as 20 years to reach its peak and drinking well through 2050. As an aside, I was able to taste the individual components of this wine on the day prior to this tasting. The final blend is better than any of its parts.
