Tasting Notes
In 2016 Taylor's began picking in Vargellas on 17 September, followed by Pinh�o Valley estate on 23 and 26 September. The 2016 Vintage Port has an aristocratic bouquet with tight wound aromas of blackberry, bilberry, crushed stone, black olive and a light, marine-tinged element, perhaps almost peat-like. The palate is just beautiful with fine, chiseled tannins and a perfect line of acidity. There is that almost 'arching' structure one always seeks in a great Taylor's with a gentle but insistent grip towards the finish. It is everything you really want from a Vintage Port. Drinking window: 2026-2076. Score - 97. (Neal Martin, vinous.com, June 2018)
