NV Taylor Tawny 20YO (bottled 2014)

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Bottled 2014. Light russet-brown, 10% opaque. A gentle nose of oranges and marzipan. Hollow entry with the early palate showing little. A good mid-palate, richer and fuller with a sweet orange candy as the central feature. A gentle but chewy finish where the wine really blossoms; good length. 87/100. May 2015.
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!
