Description
Characteristics and Tasting Tips for the 50 Year Old Tawny de Taylor's
Tasting
Appearance
Chestnut color with a copper heart and a slightly golden rim.
Nose
On the nose, notes of rum and raisins, clove, nutmeg and a slight hint of crushed black pepper harmoniously mingle with aromas of dried apricots, dates, quince, vanilla and rum-soaked grapes.
Palate
Plums, quince and apricot dance on the palate while lemon and orange zest bring a fresh acidity that balances the richness of this spirit. Grilled pineapple, passion fruit and lychee perfectly harmonize with toasted coconut, almonds and butter caramel. The texture envelops the palate with a bright, fresh and balanced finish.
Pairings and Tasting Occasions
Excellent with fig, almond and caramel desserts. Perfectly pairs with crème brûlée and wild strawberries. Also delightful on its own, served with nuts or dried fruits. Serve lightly chilled between 12°C and 16°C. Once opened, it stays perfectly fresh for up to 2 months.
Other Characteristics
Ready to drink, no decanting required. Store upright, away from light and at a cool, constant temperature.
The Expression and Smoothness of a Fifty-Year-Old Aged Port
Taylor's, a Historic Douro House
Founded in 1692, Taylor's is a family-owned house dedicated to producing quality ports for over three centuries. The estate comprises three vineyards in the Douro: Quinta de Vargellas, Quinta de Terra Feita and Quinta do Junco. These vineyards form the cornerstone of the house style and attest to the excellence of this Duriense region. Taylor's upholds a traditional savoir-faire while maintaining the highest quality standards that have earned it worldwide renown.
A Rare Blend of Ports Aged Fifty Years
This 50 Year Old Tawny represents the culmination of Taylor's artistry. Blend of ports rare aged for half a century in oak casks selected by the house’s expert coopers. These vineyards are located on the eastern slopes of the Douro valley. After fifty years of aging, this port has reached its "Age of Gold" in maturity, the point where it develops perfect balance, magical complexity and seductive density. This special collector’s edition is released in very limited quantities in a commemorative bottle with a wooden case, ideal for marking a 50th anniversary.
