1948 Taylor

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Mature rose red colour, 30% opaque. Fruit on the nose, mature and wonderfully expressive. Gloriously youthful fruit on nose and palate, yet with a little secondary spice added to it. The palate is incredible, huge amounts of violet infused fruit. The fruit lasts and lasts, just so youthful. 97/100. The cork clearly identifies the wine as Taylor 19.. and best interpretations suggest T48. Drunk on 12-Dec-2024 at the 2024 Port Forum Christmas Tasting of The Unknown Shipper and His Peculiar Friends.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

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