- 1970 Taylor (Fladgate) Porto Vintage - Portugal, Douro, Porto (7/26/2019)
Surprisingly dark purple in color. I’m used to this wine being a more vibrant garnet in color. Spirity on the nose with some eucalyptus and herbal notes. Medium-bodied with some cinnamon and red hots on the palate, with some decent complexity. There was a spike of spirit on the mid-palate, but it receded on the finish and left some pleasant notes of cherry and red fruit. (92 pts.)
