2011 Taylor

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Golden syrup and black cherries dominate the nose. Lovely entry with round, mouthfilling tannins and pure fruit. Big mid-palate with lots of sour fruit. Lovely sour cherry and chocolate finish. Great fruit and good elegance, but slightly acidic. 93-95. Tasted over 1-4 days as part of the extended 2011 tasting.
Top Ports in 2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.

2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!
