Product Notes

Dow's Quinta do Bomfim Vintage Port is a delightfully rich and luxuriant wine originating from Portugal's prime vineyard estates. It boasts a divine blend of perfection through its multi-layered flavours; an intriguing medley of ripe blackberries, plums and hints of chocolate. Traditionally matured for two years, it exhibits a beautiful deep ruby hue and a complex aroma promising an utterly gratifying experience. Its long-lasting finish leaves a remarkable impression tantamount to its regal standing. This Vintage port wine is canvas of indulgence that pairs perfectly with cheese and desserts. Quintessentially Dow’s, Bonfim is an epitome of sophisticated, sumptuous sipping.

Tasting Notes

Spice and pepper balance the black chocolate flavours and these are very evident in all Bomfim Ports. Abundant fruit flavours with hints of maple, raisins and ripe blackberries give elegance and poise to this wine. The very high percentage of Touriga Franca and Touriga Nacional planted on the estate result in the powerful aromas of mint and violets on the finest Ports from Bomfim.
