    Wine:1996 Dow's Late Bottled Vintage
    Notes:Deep Ruby/Purple. Dark fruit, balanced and appealing aroma. What a balanced wine! This is a great LBV, with great balance between sweetness, acidity and tannin. Great flavor of dark fruits and plums. Medium to full bodied. Outstanding. This is a rare example of a balanced modern LBV.
