2003 Taylor LBV

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Filtered. Light red in colour, giving the appearance of some age. Quite young smelling on the nose, a little subdued. Light bodied, but heavily tannic. The fruit is elegant and subdued. Very acidic structure. Fruit builds to high levels on the palate. A massive aftertaste, with huge citric / grapefruit flavours. 91-93. Drunk 26 June 2009.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.
