Taylor Fladgate 10 Year Old Tawny NV

Douro Valley, Northern Portugal, PortugalHigh toned orange oil and burnished mandarin, bruléed brown sugar, tobacco, golden raisins, salted roasted almonds and pure maple syrup richness, in a smooth, spicy and lengthy pour. 10 year old Tawny refers to the average age of the wines in the blend. There are classics, and then there are CLASSICS, and Taylor 10 is capital C. What I appreciate so about this wine is that it instantly appeals to novice port drinkers, as well as to experienced tasters - it all depends on how deep into the layers you go.Tasted: 08 September 2014Tasted by: Prices:
