Taylor 1948
Douro
English-bottled by Robinson and Payne. Embossed wax capsule. Handwritten slip label with remains of bottler's slip label. Level into neck
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 ***** M.B.
