2000 Taylor’s Vintage Port

£70.00

“Comparing the aromatics of Taylor and Fonseca 2000 that are usually so different, for here they seem to have come together (perhaps just for a short period?) It is more a case of the latter dialling down a little, embracing the more conservative aromatics of Taylor. At present it offers very pure blackberry, mulberry, and a touch of smoke…not giving much away at the moment but surely destined to down the line. The palate is very refined, very pure with svelte tannins with ebullient ripe red fruits laced with tobacco, nutmeg and white pepper. Long and caressing on the finish, this should evolve into a masterful Taylor’s Vintage. Tasted May 2011.”

98 Points, Neal Martin, The Wine Advocate

“First year they included fruit from 3rd property, Quinta do Junco (10%), in addition to Vargellas and Terra Feita. Very deeply coloured, though the colour is a little less vibrant than the Graham’s. More expressive on the nose. Peppery dark berries, pepper and violets. Highly aromatic – Christmas spices, cinammon, sweetness of oak. Darker and so fine on the palate though there is plenty of tannin and structure. Elegant even in youth. Streamlined and showing amazing finesse. Elegance incarnate.”

19/20 Julia Harding MW for Jancis Robinson MW (tasted October 2010)
