Note di degustazione
Deep brick-garnet. Multi-layered nose, led by herb notes from stems, smoke, dried blackberry and rocky mineral notes. Rich, sweet-savoury black, liqueur fruit on the palate, with Taylor’s typical firm tannic structure. Savoury and intense, with an underlying minerality. I can understand why the vintage was declared.

The 1992 Taylor’s Vintage Port has a black/purple colour with only slight maturation on the rim. The nose has always been so intense, a kaleidoscope of damson, raspberry, crushed violets and just a touch of alcoholic warmth, yet somehow it retains incredible delineation. The palate is full-bodied with concentrated black fruit, the tannins having melted in recent years. The acidity is perfectly tuned and lends freshness and tension to the blueberry, cassis and blackberry fruit laced with orange zest and marmalade. It is still a primal Port after two decades but at least its "ferocious power" is being tamed with time. Tasted at a private dinner in London.
