2007 Taylor

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

From the 2017 Berry Brothers Port Walk.

Deep ruby red in colour. Fresh raspberries on the nose; sweet but balanced entry with a dry core to the fruit yet with a nice ripeness to the edges of the palate. Plentiful dry tannins support a big mouthful of flavour and give a warming cedar-wood tone to the finish. This is pleasant drinking now but the wine shows considerable potential for the future. 89/100. 23-Nov-17.
Top 2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!

2026: Quinta das Carvalhas 80YO Tawny
