Vintage 1997 – Power and elegance

The grapes were harvested in 1997, aged for approximately 2 years in oak barrels and bottled in 1999 using the classic Taylor’s method. Only the best and most concentrated wines are selected for declaration as Vintage Port.

The result is a deeply concentrated port with both structure and finesse – a wine that already impresses but still has significant ageing potential.

Tasting notes

• Color: Intense dark purple with a deep core.
• Aroma: Blackcurrant, blackberry and dark cherry with hints of licorice and spice.
• Flavor: Full-bodied and powerful with dense fruit, ripe tannins and a great balance between sweetness and structure.

Magnum – The optimal storage format

A 1.5 liter magnum bottle provides a slower and more stable maturation than standard bottles. This means greater complexity over time and even better aging potential. At the same time, it’s the perfect bottle for larger dinners, anniversaries or as a distinctive gift for the port enthusiast.
