Taylor’s LBV Port 2019

Deep ruby core with vivid ruby rim. The nose is very fine and multi-layered,
underpinned by rich strawberry jam aromas and lifted by resiny herbal notes,
fresh scents of cedarwood and hints of bracken and woodland floor. There is also a
discreetly sensuous dimension, a luxurious redolence of leather and mocha coffee.
In contrast, and in keeping with the Taylor house style, the palate has an attractive
edge of austerity with taut wiry tannins providing a firm grip to the long finish
which delivers a surge of rich berry fruit flavour. A beautifully refined wine, poised
and complete, displaying a complexity comparable with that of a mature classic
vintage port. A beautiful expression of the 2018 vintage with its accent on elegance
and finesse.
