Now over six decades old, it has softened into a wine of extraordinary elegance, yet still carries the deep, brooding character that Dow is known for.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, it displays a mature tawny-garnet core with a wide amber rim. The nose is beautifully evolved: dried fig, orange peel, old cedar, tobacco leaf and warm spices, layered with hints of rosewood and caramelised nuts. There is a quiet complexity here that only true vintage maturity can provide.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe palate is graceful and silky, with sweet dried fruits, mellow spice, walnut, and soft cocoa tones. The once-powerful tannins have resolved completely, leaving a long, warming finish lifted by Dow’s signature dry edge. It holds together with impressive poise for its age, offering a refined and contemplative drinking experience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePerfect for special occasions or collectors seeking a genuine piece of Port history. Best enjoyed lightly decanted to remove sediment and served at cellar temperature. This is a rare chance to experience a fully mature Dow from a classic vintage—rich in character, beautifully balanced, and unforgettable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"productinfo\"\u003eCondition Report:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"productinfo\"\u003eLevel High Shoulder or better\u003cbr\u003eReprographic labels\u003cbr\u003eEmbossed wax capsules, a few have slight damage - See photo\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Purchase is Inclusive of a Buyers Premium (to Mitigate Shopify \u0026amp; Card Fees)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Dow's","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56464821158267,"sku":null,"price":165.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0474\/0484\/3168\/files\/3DAA607E-FFD5-40BF-8987-26BEB5B8E255.jpg?v=1790072613","url":"https:\/\/barrelsandbotanicals.com\/products\/dows-1960-vintage-port-75cl-20-private-seller-2","provider":"Barrels \u0026 Botanicals","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
