NV Taylor Ruby (First Estate)

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Firm red colour with tones of early maturity. Perfumed nose with lots of violets and black fruit. Smooth and sweet on entry, full of soft fruit with gentle tannins. Very balanced on the palate but rather lightweight. Gentle fruit on the finish. A nice example of the style. 85/100. May 2015.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

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