2009 Taylor LBV

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Bottled 2014. Deep red and opaque. Modest floral nose. Lovely texture bringing restrained gentle fruit. The soft tannins provide some support but they are modest in their grip. The soft tannins dominate the aftertaste but the fruit leads on the finish. 85/100. Drunk 03-Jun-14.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

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