Dow's 2016 Vintage Port

Olivia Park — Converted my port-hating friend

9/10

Had this after dinner with mates and even my friend who says he hates port was impressed. It's not sweet and heavy like the cheap stuff — there's a real tightness to it that keeps it interesting. Went perfectly with some stilton and walnuts. Would definitely get another bottle.

Henrik Larsen — Good but I expected more

7/10

Tried this at a restaurant and liked it enough to track down a bottle. It's clean and well made, no question, and the finish lingers nicely. But for over £80 I was expecting to be completely blown away and it didn't quite get there for me. Maybe I need to give it more time to open up.

Diana Cruz — Best port I've ever had

10/10

My wife got me this for my 50th and wow. It's so well balanced — none of that burning feeling you get with cheaper ports. You can smell it building in the glass before you even take a sip. I've been rationing the bottle because I don't want it to end.
