1966 Taylor Fladgate Vintage Port

[SEAN C.]

This Berry Brothers & Rudd bottling of 1966 Taylor had a mild smokey nose, with a bit of clove, raisin, and later a dull maple scent. No harsh alcohol smell whatsoever . The color was mostly solid ruby with hints of purple and blue. On the palate: blackcurrant, cherries, and a hint of cantaloupe, with a underlying taste of honey. Perfectly balanced with at least a 20 second finish. A real winner with a good number of years left for this Port to be in it's prime.
Moses Botbol and I rate this bottle 94/100 points.
