1994 Taylor Fladgate Vintage Port
Product price
$99.98
Description
The 1994 Taylor Fladgate Vintage Port is a rich, full-bodied wine originating from the Douro Valley in Portugal. It showcases complex flavors of dark fruits, chocolate, and spice, balanced by a robust structure and a long, elegant finish. This vintage is known for its deep, concentrated profile, typical of Taylor Fladgate's esteemed reputation. With time the upfront fruit, alcohol, sweetness and tannins soften and become more cohesive and complex.
Serve at a temperature of 60-65°F and pair it with rich cheeses, dark chocolate, or enjoy it on its own as a digestif.

Expert Reviews
This is, to date, the greatest Vintage Port ever from here. It overwhelmed me years ago when I tasted it from barrel, but only now is it crossing gradually into its drinking window. The intensity is still mind-boggling here, with sweet-and-sour notes as well as mounds of clay. There are violets lurking somewhere too. A full-bodied, medium sweet and sublime Vintage Port, showing forest fruits and freshly picked blackberries on the palate in the form of a creamy, focused and tannic texture. Review Date: 10/2012
In a word, superb. It's full-bodied, moderately sweet and incredibly tannic, but there's amazing finesse and refinement to the texture, not to mention fabulous, concentrated aromas of raspberries, violets and other flowers. Perhaps the greatest Taylor ever, it's better than either the '92 or the '70, though it's very like the '70 in structure. *Ranked #1 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 1997* (JS) Review Date: 04/1997
