HED54646 75cl 20.5%
Situated in the wild and hilly eastern section of the Douro Valley, Quinta de Vargellas is widely regarded as one of the finest vineyards in the region and often provides the backbone to Taylor’s Vintage Ports. However, in particular vintages, Taylor’s release Quinta de Vargellas Vinha Velha as an extremely limited production single-Quinta Port made from five selected plots of old vines that average 80 to 120 years in age. Stylistically it is slightly different to the regular Vintage as it offers more precision, elegance and greater potential longevity.

Taylor`s

Established over three centuries ago in 1692, Taylor’s is one of the oldest Port houses. Noted for their for their restrained power and longevity, Taylor’s Vintage Ports are blended from the finest wines of the firm’s own quintas or estates, Vargellas, Terra Feita and Junco, with each property occupying a distinct geographic location and contributing their own unique character to the blend. Taylor’s is also respected as a producer of wood-aged ports and holds one of the largest reserves of rare cask aged wines from which its distinguished aged tawny Ports are drawn. Added to that, the house is also known as the originator of Late Bottled Vintage style of Port.

Headquartered in Oporto with vineyards across the Douro Valley the company is closely involved in all stages of the production of its Ports, from the planting of the vineyard and the cultivation of the grapes to the making, ageing, blending and bottling of the wines.
