2017 Taylor's Vintage Porto Porto

Description

Taylor’s Vintage 2017 is a Port wine of extraordinary elegance and depth, perfectly embodying the classic style of the Taylor’s house. Its colour is deep and opaque, revealing a complex and refined aroma dominated by very pure wild fruits, violet floral notes, hints of citrus, aromatic herbs and a distinct graphite mineralism. On the palate it presents firm, muscular tannins, accompanied by remarkable precision and balance. The finish is long, intense and vibrant, highlighting an exceptional ageing potential. Founded more than three centuries ago in 1692, Taylor’s is one of the oldest Port houses dedicated exclusively to producing Port wine, especially its finest styles. As an independent company whose success is inseparable from that 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 producer of Port wines, and drinking its wines is the most sublime of experiences. The bottling year may not correspond to the accompanying image.
