More questions
Porto Select from Porto Taylor's is a refined example of the Portuguese tradition in creating rich and intense dessert wines. Originating from the Douro region, a land famous for its ancient vines and ideal climate, this Porto is obtained from a skillful selection of native grape varieties, mainly Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, and Tinta Roriz. Its aging takes place in wooden barrels, where it acquires complexity and a perfect balance between sweetness and freshness.
In the glass, it presents a deep ruby color, accompanied by intense aromas of ripe red fruits, spicy notes, and hints of licorice. On the palate, it stands out for its silky and enveloping structure, with a long and harmonious finish that reveals sensations of soft tannins and just the right alcoholic balance. Porto Select is ideal to pair with aged cheeses, chocolate desserts, or simply to enjoy as a meditation wine after meals.

The story
Taylor Fladgate & Yeatman has very early origins: the house's history is traced back to 1692 and the current name (Taylor Fladgate & Yeatman) was established through partnerships in the 19th century. The house has remained closely linked to the cellar-ageing traditions in Vila Nova de Gaia and to family management over the centuries.
Ageing
Ageing in seasoned oak casks and large oak vats in the Vila Nova de Gaia lodges for Tawnies and reserves; long wood ageing for age‑statement labels (10/20/30/40/50/60 years), bottle ageing for Vintage Ports; LBV aged longer in cask than Vintage before bottling.
