Taylors LBV Port 2019

Deep ruby core with vivid ruby rim. The nose is very fine and multi-layered, underpinned by rich strawberry jam aromas and lifted by resiny herbal notes, fresh scents of cedarwood and hints of bracken and woodland floor. There is also a discreetly sensuous dimension, a luxurious redolence of leather and mocha coffee. In contrast, and in keeping with the Taylor house style, the palate has an attractive edge of austerity with taut wiry tannins providing a firm grip to the long finish which delivers a surge of rich berry fruit flavour. A beautifully refined wine, poised and complete, displaying a complexity comparable with that of a mature classic vintage port. A beautiful expression of the 2018 vintage with its accent on elegance and finesse.
