Description
The 1985 Taylor's Vintage port is now a medium ruby with a little lightening around the edge. It still has beautiful aromas of fresh plum, with a little heat and black pepper. On the palate. the Taylor's is full-bodied and medium-sweet, with gorgeous silky tannins and a long, long finish. This 1985 Port vintage is now showing very well and offers wonderful flavors. Long life ahead, VWP TC Jan 2020. Decanted 6 hours.
Review: "Typical for Taylor's. Notes of woodspice and pepper, very slightly spirity. Nevertheless, a delicious texture on entry, supple and stylish, although with a very firm weight, firm tannins and good acids. Again this is fine to drink now, although it still holds some potential now. Very good indeed, bordering on excellent. From a Port Styles tasting." 17.5+/20 (November 2007), Wine Doctor (online).
