Dows Port

For over two centuries the name of DOW has been associated with the finest Port from the vineyards of the Upper Douro Valley. Throughout the 20th Century and into the 21st, the Symington family has built on the legacy of the preceding Silva and Dow families. Generations of Symington winemakers have worked at the Dow’s vineyards: Quinta do Bomfim and Quinta da Senhora da Ribeira, creating from them Dow’s 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.
The white port is a golden colour with an intense, rich, nutty, aromatic complexity. A certain amount of wine is not wood-age is and is blended in to add freshness and fruit character.
One of the best ways to enjoy this white port is served over ice with a little tonic-water and slice of lemon--called a "Port-Tonic".
Dow’s Fine White was 100% fermented off the skins and using temperature control so that fermentation takes place between 18-22ºc. Aged for an average of three years it is bottled when ready to drink and requires no further ageing.
