Dow's 2007, Port, Portugal - 100 pts JS124. 95 per bottle ABV 20% "Amazing aromas of lilac, violet, crushed blueberry and mineral that turn to black pepper and spices follow throughto a full bodied, medium sweet palate, with a long, chewy finish. Evolves to tar and asphalt. Really held back, yetpowerful grip slaps you. This is mind blowing in texture. The greatest Dow ever made. Best after 2022."100James Suckling, WineSpectator. com, April 2010

not too acidic

with layers of intensely ripe botrytis-tinged

juicy and round but not heavy

it is a typical and very elegant Pauillac

ceviche… It can also be combined with light cooking that preserves the freshness of dishes such as steam or fast cooking in snacking

inspired by the wines of Alsace

"The 2016 Aile d’Argent underwent a high percentage of malolactic fermentation (27%)

Very persistent

a lovely minerality and iron notes from the Pomerol soil

which means `lower inlets`

VITICULTURE: Guyot - manual pruning & harvesting

offer better ageing potential
