The fortified wines Taylor's Flatgate Vintage Port DOC, vintage 1985 from the winery Taylor’s has been rated in 2016 with 91 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the region Douro in Portugal.
Strong ruby garnet, dark core, violet reflections. Rather less expressive bouquet, a hint of ripe plums, orange zest, subtle minerality. Quite baroque on the palate, lush, but also less clearly structured style, appears very sweet measured by the style of the house, already easy to drink, one would wish for a little more freshness. (Drinking/ ageing +10)
