Taylor--Vintage 1948
Damaged wax capsules embossed TAYLOR 1948 where legible. Three bottled by John Harvey and Sons in lot 6. Levels top-shoulder or better except one upper-shoulder in lot 6
Tasting Note: The greatest of the '48s and arguably of all Taylor vintages, certainly vying with their '35. Perfect now. Again, over 20 notes made over the past 50 years, and invariably magnificent. Two very recent bottles, both perfection. Mature, luminous; exquisite, harmonious, ethereal fragrance, whiff of liquorice; fairly sweet, lovely flavour, strength, firm yet delicate; excellent finish. Last tasted May 2006 ***** At its peak but years of life ahead M.B.
