1985 Taylor Fladgate Vintage Port

[Bill Spohn]

1985 – significantly deeper colour, a very nice nose featuring figs and blackberry, a solid hit of tannin in the mouth and the emphatic plea to be cellared quite awhile longer before being opened. The 1983 was better right now, and I am going to reserve judgement on whether I think that the 85 will do better in time than the 83 has now.
