    Product description

    Founded in 1692, Taylor’s is one of the oldest and most esteemed Port houses, renowned for pioneering Aged Tawny and exceptional Vintage Ports.

    The nose opens with intense blackcurrant, cherry, and blackberry aromas, complemented by notes of apricot, plum, and a touch of cedar. Hints of gum cistus and violet add an exotic flair, characteristic of Vargellas-followed Vintage Ports. On the palate, it begins with a supple restraint, leading to a powerful finish of tightly woven tannins and a surge of rich black fruit flavors.

  • About the producer

    About the producer: Taylor’s

    Taylor’s is one of the oldest Port houses, founded over three centuries ago in 1692. Based in Oporto and the Douro Valley, the firm remains an independent company, closely involved in all stages of the production of its ports, from vineyard activities to the making, ageing, blending and bottling of the wines. Taylor’s has always been a pioneer in port’s production, being one of the first shippers to offer a 10 & 20 year old Aged Tawny ports and Late Bottled Vintage style. Its Vintage ports are well renown around the world especially their prestigious Quinta de Vargellas Vinha Velha. View our selection.

    Vineyards & Winemaking

    Grapes producing Taylor’s Vintage ports are sourced from the finest vines of the firm’s own quintas or estates; Vargellas (including over 100 years old vines from Vinha Velha’s vineyard), Terra Feita and Junco. Traditional foot treading continues to be used to produce port from Taylor’s own vineyards, which includes all of the firm’s Vintage Ports. Mechanical treading is used for other ports.

    Wine Produced

    They cover a whole range of port including White, Ruby, Select Reserve, LBV, Tawny, Aged Tawny, Vintage and Single Quinta.
