Taylor’s Vintage has a multifaceted, Pandora’s Box of a nose that is mercurial in the glass: cassis at first before blackberry and raspberry politely ask it to move aside, followed by wilted rose petals and Dorset plum. The palate is sweet and sensual on the entry, plush and opulent, with copious black cherries, boysenberry and cassis fruit, curiously more reminiscent of Fonseca! It just glides across the palate with a mouth-coating, glycerine-tinged finish that has a wonderful lightness of touch.

Douro is a wine region located in the northern part of Portugal, known for producing high-quality fortified wines. The region has a long history of winemaking, dating back to the Roman times. The Douro Valley is characterized by steep terraced vineyards that follow the curves of the river, creating a unique landscape.

The production of Port wine is the main focus of the Douro region. Port is a fortified wine that is made by adding brandy to the wine during fermentation, which stops the fermentation process and leaves residual sugar in the wine. The wine is then aged in oak barrels for several years, resulting in a rich, complex wine with flavors of dried fruit, nuts, and spices.

In addition to Port, the Douro region also produces table wines, which have gained recognition in recent years for their quality and unique character. The region's red wines are made from a blend of indigenous grape varieties, including Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, and Tinta Barroca. These wines are known for their deep color, full body, and complex aromas and flavors.

Overall, the Douro region is a must-visit destination for wine lovers, offering a unique combination of history, culture, and exceptional wines.
