1965 Taylor Fladgate Quinta de Vargellas Vintage Port
Posted: Mon Mar 19, 2012 2:33 pm
From the 2012 American Crossword Puzzle Tournament tasting in NYC.
Color: medium red, almost what you might call light red.
Nose: violets and sweet cherries. borderline cough syrup.
Palate: rather plain and simple, but tasty. Very sweet bordering on cloying, but not quite. Medium full body.
Score: 89 points. A very good Port, but not something I'd seek out to purchase without some other reason like a birthday or anniversary.
