Taylor Fladgate Late Bottled Vintage Port 2019

Deep ruby red with vivid purple highlights on the rim. The first impression is of intense woodland fruit with crisp blackcurrant and blackberry aromas. The nose has a youthful freshness and vigor with bursts of powerful, black berry fruit slowly revealing undertones of raspberry and cherry, scents of wild herbs and discreet warmer notes of licorice and coffee. This elegant and polished LBV displays the characteristic Taylor definition and restraint. The palate is supported by taut, sinewy but perfectly integrated tannins and delivers a surge of powerful woodland berry flavors from the outset which are sustained into the long finish. The character of the 2019 harvest, with its freshness and pure, bright fruit, shines through on this wine. As usual, this LBV shares the precision and elegance of the great Taylor Vintage Ports in a more approachable and early drinking style.

A perfect finish to any meal. Excellent with fully flavored cheeses such as blue cheeses and Stilton or Roquefort. Also pairs well with chocolate or berry desserts.
