Lot 171 Details
TAYLOR FLADGATE VINTAGE PORT 1992 (OWC)

Douro, Portugal.

This is a massive, magnificently rich, full-bodied port that will be far more flattering in its youth than were such Taylors as the 1983, 1977, or 1970. It possesses awesome fruit, marvelous intensity, and lavish opulence, all brilliantly well-delineated by the wine's formidable structure. This monumental 30-50 year port is a must purchase for port aficionados.! Also noteworthy is the fact that the 1992 Taylor commemorates the 300th anniversary of this firm, as evidenced by the special bottle Taylor used for this port. February 1995 Drink: 1995-2045 WA 100

12 bts.    per lot $2,200 - $2,400
