Dow\’s – Vale do Bomfim Douro 2020 (750ml)

A quintessential, easy-drinking Portuguese red blend that works on its own yet would shine with food. Black fruits and fresh cracked black pepper both on the nose and palate. Medium acid plus firm, medium tannins round out the structure of this versatile wine. -Brianne Cohen, Dec 2022

Ripe and soft with red fruits and generous flavors, this is an easy access wine. With a final bright acidity, the wine is ready to drink. Best Buy. -Roger Voss, Nov 2023

The 2020 Tinto Vale do Bomfim Dow is mostly a blend of Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz and Touriga Franca, all aged for six months in an equal mixture of stainless steel and French oak. It comes in at 14.3% alcohol. Dark and bitter, this has strong flavors and a fair bit of intensity for this level. That\’s not to suggest big tannic impact, but rather concentration of fruit. The good depth has very ripe tannins for support. -Mark Squires, Jul 2022
