Posted: Fri Dec 31, 2010 2:49 pm
Part of the '55 @ 55 tasting at the RAF Club in London with special guest Christian Seely on 12-OCT-2010 after the 2010 Port Harvest Tour.
1955 Taylor Vintage Port
Color: Best of the night - very pretty, even brilliant. It practically bursts out of the glass.
Nose: Somewhat musty or dusty, some faint alcohol.
Palate: Decent tannins. Some faint cherry or strawberry.
Finish: Nice warmth. Decent fruit carryover from the palate.
Score: 90+ points. My #1 of the flight and #2 of the night. Also concensus #1 of the flight and #2 on the night.
