Taylor's Port Tawny 30 Years Old shows us an incredibly fruity flavor on the tongue, which is of course due to its residual sweet flavor profile. On the tongue, this punchy Fortified Wine is characterized by an incredibly dense and velvety texture. Due to its present fruit acidity, the Tawny 30 Years Old presents itself fantastically fresh and lively on the palate. The final of this fortified wine from the wine-growing region Douro & Porto, more precisely from the Douro DOC, finally impresses with considerable reverberation.
A sublime Port of very great age which shows the old olive-gold hue of its many years in cask. Decades of evaporation have concentrated this extraordinary wine to an exceptional density, with a powerful nose of dried fruit, honey and a touch of spice. Impressions of nutmeg, roasted coffee and an intense nuttiness converge both in the bouquet and on the palate. The wine’s rich, intense, voluptuous, almost viscous texture culminate in a finish of incredible length.
