The Late Bottled Vintage from the renowned Taylor house is a fortified red wine of exceptional quality, a distinguished representative of the classic style of Porto wines. Produced exclusively in selected vintages, when the quality of the grapes reaches the desired excellence, this wine spends 4-6 years aging in traditional wooden barrels before being bottled, allowing it to achieve a perfect balance between youthful vibrancy and the complexity of development.
The main characteristic of Taylor's Late Bottled Vintage is its deep ruby color, enriched by an intensely aromatic bouquet where notes of ripe fruit such as plum and currant can be recognized, integrated with spicy accents and light touches of chocolate and cedar wood, acquired during the aging period. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and balanced, with a robust but velvety tannic structure, which harmoniously complements the fruity richness and delicate sweetness that distinguish this Porto.
This Late Bottled Vintage is ideal for accompanying aged cheeses, chocolate desserts, or as a meditation wine at the end of a meal. Its aging potential is remarkable, being able to evolve and further refine its aromatic profile if kept in a cellar.
For lovers of fortified wines and connoisseurs in search of a high-end Porto that expresses the unique terroir of the Douro region, the Late Bottled Vintage from Taylor represents an excellent choice, destined to satisfy with its depth and elegance.
