  1977 - Dow Vintage Port Silver Jubilee
 Feb 04, 2008

After beginning with a Taittinger rose, and a 1986 Petrus, I feared the Dows Silver Jubilee might not hold up.  It not only perfectly complimented our meal, champagne, and wines, but was perfect with the Cuban cigars, as well. The tannins were very smooth.  The acohol was in complete balance with the fruit of the wine.  This is a port not to be missed.
