Description

The 300 year old Port House of Taylor's, based in Oporto on the Atlantic coast are owners of the Quinta de Vargellas vineyard, based high up in the Douro Valley. Vines of over 75 years old make up 60% of the vineyard, produces wines that age as long as vintage Port. Concentrated spicy aromas of raisin, spices, and currant. Exceptionally rich, with layer upon layer of fruit, a chewy, unctuous texture, firm structure and tannin and a finish lasting in over a minute. Decant well in advance and enjoy anytime over the next decade (or two). Serve with a full cheese platter, or just savour after dinner. In 2022, this wine won an IWC award for the 2013 vintage.
