98+ points “Taylor's 2000 tastes like a young vintage of Château Latour on steroids. Aromas of graphite blackberry liqueur crème de cassis and smoke jump from the glass. Spectacularly concentrated and enormously endowed with sweetness allied to ripe tannin decent acidity and layer upon layer of fruit and extract this is the leading candidate for the Port of the vintage.” – Wine Advocate
Robert Parker has regularly described Taylor’s as “the Latour of Portugal” but this time the famous Port is like the First Growth Bordeaux pumped up on steroids. Always one of the wines of the vintage Taylor’s have clearly done it again in 2000. Firm classic and chewy this big Vintage Port displays complex floral notes spices dried herbs and black fruit. But what makes it even more exciting is that it costs less than a tenth of a bottle of Château Latour making it a phenomenal choice for any true wine connoisseur.
Taylor’s is the archetypal Port house synonymous with this style of wine. This is proven by the Royal Warrant it holds as one of the Suppliers of Port Wine to Her Majesty The Queen. Although steeped in history as you would expect of a family-run business established in 1692 the forward-thinkers at Taylor’s are also committed to sustainable viticulture and have installed solar panels on three of their properties.
