Multi: 1970 Taylor Vintage Port

Post by Marco D. »

Powerful intensity, but without any jagged edges. Piercing cherry and spiced plums. Some slight medicinal notes. Considering the impact this makes on the palate, it is still quite elegant and refined. Not bad, considering this was a slightly leaking bottle. (94)

[Taylor vs Fonseca @ The Warwick (NYC)]: A bit darker than the companion 1970. Cherry liquor, spice, more fruit and a longer finish than the companion 1970. I guessed Fonseca but was wrong. (93)

Nice nose of sweet raisen-like fruit. Dried black fruits and floral scents. Beautiful finish. Mature and ready to drink, yet will hold for more years. Smooth as silk. Heavy sediment. (95)
