Taylor`s Single Harvest Tawny 1896
A rich and seductive redolence of black coffee and liquorice takes centre stage, together with hints of cedarwood, dried rose petal, fennel and eucalyptus. Notes of black pepper and vanilla add a warm spicy dimension. On the palate the wine is dense, round and velvety with impressive volume and concentration, the sweetness balanced by a fresh acidity. Mellow flavours of coffee and butterscotch combine with vibrant notes of orange peel and citrus. The finish is endless, the dense mellow flavours remaining on the palate long after the wine has been tasted.
Each decanter designed and produced exclusively for Taylor’s 1896 Single Harvest Port was individually hand blown and finished by skilled craftsmen, making it unique.
