Taylors 40 Year Old Tawny Port

98 Points Falstaff Magazine
In stock
A super special on this incredible aged Port in gift box! This complex and aged Port spent 40 years in oak, making it ready to drink now. Top quality wines are softened for decades in barrel to gain caramelised colour and fruit characters, and then blended into a house style that is sweet but deeply nuanced, silky, and layered. Taylor’s is one of the few remaining houses which still produces a 40 Year Old Aged Tawny Port. A very unique wine for the price. Grab this one-off special!
$285.00 in mixed 6+ or $317.00 per bottle

What The Critics Say

98/100 Falstaff

"Stunningly complex nose with fine tertiary aromas, nuances of confectionery, candied citrus, molasses and rose. Initially soft, supple and creamy on the palate with some subtleness. All components are tightly interwoven but this wine still seems structured and downright youthful, with power, vigour and texture. A delicate sweetness with a fresh and juicy finish."

97/100 Bob Campbell MW

"Green-tinged and very pale. Crème brûlée on the nose, with butterscotch and toffee. No fruit left - it’s been replaced by delicately appealing rancio characters. A smooth-textured port with a very lengthy finish. Subtle yet with obvious power. What a treat!"

96/100 Wine Spectator

"There's a lovely, rich feel as this slowly unfurls, allowing hazelnut, walnut and Brazil nut notes to meld with date, green fig and mulled cherry fruit flavors. Flashes of singed sesame, bitter orange and argan oil provide extra nuance through the finish."
