Dow’s Senhora da Ribeira Vintage Port – Limited Edition Collection3 x 75cl – Vintages 1999, 2009 & 2019

Vintage & BackgroundThis exceptional limited-edition collection showcases three landmark vintages from Senhora da Ribeira, Dow’s jewel-like estate in the heart of the Douro Superior. Known for producing some of the most elegant and aromatic wines in the region, Senhora da Ribeira is planted on steep, schistous slopes overlooking the Douro River and has long been the source of Dow’s finest Vintage Ports. This beautifully presented set brings together three decades of winemaking history – 1999, 2009, and 2019 – offering a rare opportunity to taste the evolution of this distinguished vineyard over 20 years.

Appearance & NoseEach vintage reveals its own distinct personality, from the mature, complex bouquet of the 1999 – full of dried fruit, cedar, and spice – to the vibrant, fruit-driven intensity of the 2009, brimming with black cherry, cassis, and violets. The youthful 2019, still tightly coiled, promises decades of development with its deep concentration, lifted aromatics, and fine tannic structure.

Palate & TextureAll three ports share the Dow’s signature style: rich yet refined, with superb balance, freshness, and length. The 1999 shows silky maturity with notes of fig, tobacco, and cocoa; the 2009 offers layers of dark fruit, chocolate, and spice with a supple texture; and the 2019 delivers power and depth, underpinned by vibrant acidity and firm structure, built for long ageing.

Serving & CellaringDecant before serving to remove sediment and allow the wines to open fully. The 1999 is at peak maturity now, the 2009 is entering its prime, and the 2019 will reward extended cellaring for decades to come.

PresentationPresented as a limited-edition three-bottle set, this collection is ideal for collectors and a remarkable gift for any Port lover, showcasing the timeless character of one of the Douro’s most celebrated vineyards.
