1955 Taylor Vintage Port

[Tom D.]

Taylor Vintage Port Vertical (Los Angeles, California): A bit of wet seepage under the capsule and light tawny color were not promising. Smoky, caramel nose, with a vegetal note. Caramel and hazelnut on the palate, with a hint of red fruit. Overall short and light, balanced well enough to be drinkable, but a very weak bottle. Not scored. Corney & Barrow bottling, base neck, 3 hours in decanter.
