Purple in the glass-fresh boysenberry, a touch of green tea-almost mint. Did not seem to compare well to the 2000. But still good to drink.

A good LBV that I've enjoyed, but not up to the level of the 2003 for sure.

Re: 2005 Taylor Fladgate LBV
Agree with both of you. I prefer the 2000 and 2003 versions of the Taylor LBV to the 2005, although still a decent Port, nonetheless.
