Taylors 1994 Vintage Port

The grapes for the Vintage port wines from Taylor's are grown in the Douro valley on Taylor's own vineyards, Quinta de Vargellas and Quinta de Terra Feita, whose soil is both classified in group A, which is the absolute best group. The microclimates on the two farms are very different, and this results in complex and powerful port wines, which are particularly suitable for storage. This port wine has a nice, deep purple color, delicate aroma of ripe fruits, soft and elegant taste of fresh raspberries and blackcurrants, fantastic depth and complexity as well as an incredibly long and pleasant aftertaste. It is a well-structured port wine with lots of power, which is particularly suitable for desserts or as a glass after a good meal. 100 points at www.winespectator.com 1997 97 points at www.robertparker.com and in Wine Advocate 1996
