Taylor's Do Porto Vintage 2009 Porto

Description

Opaque, dark purple‑black in colour with a narrow violet halo. It has a stylised, energetic character, with a dense nose of black currant and forest fruits, underlined by subtle herbal notes and aromas of violets and rose petals. As always, the classic elegance and restraint of Taylor’s hide the wine’s energy and vigor. On the palate it shows lean, vigorous, and tight tannins—typical of the Taylor’s style—alongside vibrant, clearly defined fruit flavours that are the hallmark of the 2007 vintage Port. Founded over three centuries ago in 1692, Taylor’s is one of the oldest Port houses devoted exclusively to Port production, especially to its finest styles. As an independent company whose success is inseparable from the success of the Douro region itself, Taylor’s remains committed to protecting this beautiful area through viticulture that is both economically and environmentally sustainable. The future of the Douro Valley and its unique environment is also the future of Port wine, one of the world’s great classic wines and an irreplaceable part of humanity’s heritage. For many, Taylor’s is the most illustrious Port producer, and tasting its wines is a sublime experience. The bottling year may not correspond to the image shown. (Illustrative photo only)
