2018 is the third in a string of great (declared) Port vintages. While there are usually only about three vintages declared in a decade, winemakers ardently stand by their declarations. The 2018s, aside from being undeniably delicious, show the most color intensity of any recent vintage, promising great extraction and thus phenomenal longevity!
James Suckling: 96 Points
The 2018 Taylor’s Vintage Port comes predominantly from two vineyards: Quinta de Vargellas and Quinta de Terra Feita. It has a classy, aristocratic bouquet, a signature note apropos Taylor’s Vintage: dense black fruit with touches of melted tar, cloves and white pepper. This just builds and builds in the glass. The palate is very harmonious with fine tannins, perfect acidity and very pure with a gentle, almost caressing second half. White pepper interlaces the black fruit with a very precise finish. Pure class.
