DESCRIPTION
Few port houses even make a 40 year old tawny. Taylor Fladgate does, and it's one of the best arguments for patience in a bottle: decades in wood turn a young, purple port into something olive-bronze, nutty and concentrated.
Caramel, butterscotch and hazelnut come first, then burnt sugar, chocolate, toffee and toasted spice. The texture is dense and silky, but a fine line of acidity keeps it lively, and the finish goes on and on.
Serve it slightly cool, around 55-60F, in a small wine glass, and pour a little; it's intense. Excellent with crème brûlée, pecan pie, blue cheese or toasted nuts, or on its own at the end of the night. Like all tawnies it keeps for weeks after opening, so there's no rush to finish it. A thoughtful gift for a 40th birthday or anniversary.
Bottle size: 750ml
