Taylor's
10 Year Old Tawny Port
Portugal
Delicate. Taylor's 10 Year Old Tawny proved to be more reticent than other Tawny's I'd sampled while in Porto. On the palate, it's medium bodied and inlaid with dried fruit notes, a touch of caramel seamlessly interlaces dates, figs, and dried cherries in a silky embrace. There is, at times discernible heat, especially on the finish, which is spicy, a burst of white pepper and unexpected warmth. Sample

EVA airlines - not a great port, spoiling an otherwise great set of choices on the 15 hour flight home.

Spicy and leathery nose - subtle oakiness, with dark berries and a moderate orange zest finish. Really good value tawny, that could pass for a 20+.
