With a tiny production of only the house’s most exceptional Vintage Port declarations, it sits firmly among the most sought-after ports of the vintage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDeep ruby in color with a youthful purple rim, this 2017 is strikingly vivid and expressive in the glass. The nose is rich and layered, showing violet, dark forest berries, and subtle notes of eucalyptus and licorice.\n\nOn the palate, it is dense, concentrated, and highly structured, with impressive depth of flavor and a long, powerful finish. Despite its current intensity, this is a Port built for the cellar and should evolve beautifully over the next 50 to 75 years, gradually revealing even more complexity and harmony.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSourced from Taylor’s own top Douro properties—Quinta de Vargellas, Quinta de Terra Feita, and Quinta do Junco—this Vintage Port comes from some of the region’s finest Group A vineyards. The different microclimates and soils of these estates contribute to the wine’s complexity, structure, and depth. The 2017 vintage was aged for approximately 20 months in wood before bottling, preserving its concentration and freshness while building the framework for long-term ageing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBest enjoyed lightly chilled and served in large red wine glasses to allow the aromas to open fully. It can be savored on its own as a special occasion wine, but it also pairs beautifully with rich desserts, dark chocolate, blue cheese, or a perfectly cooked red pepper steak as suggested by the producer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTaylor’s, officially Taylor, Fladgate \u0026amp; Yeatman, has been shaping the world of Port since 1692 and remains one of the benchmark houses in the Douro.

Its wines are consistently ranked among the finest in the region and are revered by critics and collectors alike.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor´s","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54252057919825,"sku":"FW-5305","price":267.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0874\/0614\/9969\/files\/taylors_vintage_2017-_white-bg__3.png?v=1783442962","url":"https:\/\/bottlehero.com\/products\/taylors-vintage-port-2017-magnum","provider":"Bottle Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
