With these top-of-the-line Tawnies without vintage indication, Taylor Fladgate aims to create a consistent quality year in and year out.
TASTING NOTE: A refined and subtle Port. Outstanding. Lovely aromas of flan, caramel and egg custard with a hint of toffee. Medium-bodied, with a light sweetness and a refined, clean finish. Tastes older than 10 years. Drink now. Score - 91. (James Suckling, www.winespectator.com, Sept. 15, 2003)

TAYLOR FLADGATE 20-YEAR-OLD TAWNY PORT
After 300 years of continual Port production, Taylor Fladgate can rightly claim to be masters at their craft. This ready-to-serve aged Tawny is close to perfection. Match it with crème brûlée, or hazelnut torte to fully appreciate Taylor's trademark rich apricot and dried fruit flavours and lengthy, nutty, honeyed finish. Just as with the 10-year-old version (121749, $34.95), once opened this will last for several weeks.
