• Subtle hints of tobacco leaf, faded rose petal and black tea
• Spicy aromas of black pepper and scents of orange flower combine to give the wine an attractive aromatic character
• Surprisingly light, ethereal and intense but not overwhelming
• The impression of lightness continues into the palate
• Enjoy a roundness and silky texture, balanced by a fresh, perfectly integrated acidity
• Attractive lift to the long aed mellow finish

Taylor’s is the archetypal port house and its wines the quintessential ports. Established over three centuries ago in 1692, Taylor’s is one of the oldest of the founding port houses. Their finest styles come from the dedication of port wine.

Taylor’s is the benchmark for vintage port. These ports come from the firm’s own quintas or estates, Vargellas, Terra Feita and Junco are blended from the finest wines.

These three iconic properties, each occupying a distinct geographic location and with their own unique character. This making them the cornerstone of the company’s success and the main source of its unique and inimitable house style.
