Taylor’s Very Very Old Tawny Port King Charles III – Limited Edition

A rare and historic port created for a unique event. Taylor’s Very Very Old Tawny Port King Charles III has been released on the occasion of the coronation of His Majesty on May 6, 2023 – an exclusive limited edition of just 1,500 bottles. This is not just a port, but a collector’s item and a piece of living history from one of the world’s most iconic port houses.

To mark this national milestone, Taylor’s has selected some of the oldest and rarest casks that have aged for decades in the house cellars in Vila Nova de Gaia. The result is an extraordinary Very Very Old Tawny Port with impressive depth, complexity and elegance – a wine worthy of a king and made to be enjoyed on special occasions.

This exclusive anniversary edition celebrates both the British monarchy and Taylor’s proud tradition of uncompromising quality since 1692. King Charles III is the 15th reigning monarch in the house’s lifetime – a testament to both history and Taylor’s remarkable continuity.

An ideal gift for the port enthusiast, collector or to mark a special occasion. Serve slightly chilled and enjoy slowly – preferably in good company.

Tasting notes

Color: Deep amber-golden with mahogany nuances and a green tinge at the edge – a clear sign of very long barrel aging.

Aroma: Intense and complex aroma with notes of roasted walnuts, dried figs, orange peel, caramel, toffee and fine spicy undertones.

Flavor: Silky and concentrated with layer upon layer of nuts, dried fruit, honey, mocha and elegant oak. A perfectly balanced acidity provides freshness and an endlessly long, refined finish.
