Taylor Fladgate 10 Year Old Tawny NV

Douro Valley, Northern Portugal, PortugalAlways a style template the Taylor's 10 Year Old is sufficiently complex yet eminently drinkable – a great introduction to tawny ports. The colour is garnet orange showing its barrel age the nose a nutty spicy, fig, brown sugar affair with flecks of pipe tobacco, nutmeg and orange peel. The palate is aromatic with almonds, toffee and spice that finishes long and sweet. The final blend is a mix of individual 630 litre casks aged for an average of 10 years. Serve fireside with friends or a great book. A real bargain in the wine world.Tasted: 15 July 2015Tasted by: Prices:
