Description
A bottle of Taylors 2012 (37.5cl) and a bottle of Fonseca 2012 Vintage Ports (37.5cl).
"My pick of the bunch. Just glorious in its aromatic and fruit purity with violet-scented cassis and a long, very precise ever so Taylor’s finish well supported by firm but powdery tannins. Excitingly vibrant and fresh with lingering fruit and floral intensity." Sarah Ahmed, Wine Detective (online)
"A deeper hue with more opacity from this Port, the product of blending different estates (the other two are single quinta/estate vintage Ports). It’s more robust too with a charge of powdery, textured tannins behind its ripe plum and dried fig fruit with just a hint of tobacco. The most “traditional” in feel and, following Guimaraens’ masterclass, I’m certainly more conscious of the savoury dimension which Tinta Amarela seems to bring to the blend. Very good." Sarah Ahmed, Wine Detective (Online)
