Description

From a spectacular harvest, this 1963 vintage Port wine from Taylor's shows a pale garnet colour with red brilliant highlights. At first the spirit is rather overpowering. Then dark chocolate starts appearing, followed by herbal, rock rose , licorice, cigar box, leathery quality really comes through in the mouth and a slightly medicinal character. The finish is long and lingering.

This house must certainly be the Latour of Portugal. Their ports are remarkably backward yet still impressive when young. Of all the vintage ports, those of Taylor need the longest time to mature and even when fully mature seem to have an inner strength and firmness that keep them going for decades. The 1963 is quite fabulous yet still seemingly capable of developing for another decade or more.Parker Buying Guide 1989.
