Taylor Fladgate 1970 Vintage Port

Taylors is regarded as the benchmark for Vintage Port. Noted for their elegance and poise as well as for their restrained power and longevity, Taylors Vintage Ports are blended from the finest wines of the firms own quintas or estates, Vargellas, Terra Feita and Junco. From July through to October in 1970 almost no rain fell and the harvest which started on 21st September was made under ideal conditions. It was also the year in which Alistair Robertson, the current Chairman of Taylors Port, launched the 1965 Late Bottled Vintage Reserve, creating the LBV Port style as we know it today.
