Taylor's Vintage Port 1994 75cl

295,00 

O inverno de 1993/1994 foi extremamente chuvoso em toda a região. Como resultado, a maioria das vinhas tiveram rendimentos muito baixos. Em algumas áreas do Douro, os níveis de produção foram de até menos 75% em relação à média. Apesar do início fraco, a época de crescimento foi satisfatória, com tempo cálido e seco, apenas interrompido por poucos e curtos períodos de chuva.

O Porto Vintage 1994 recebeu 100 pontos do altamente reconhecido James Suckling, que formava parte da equipa da revista Wine Spectator na altura.

Cor carmim profunda, apenas começando a exibir alguma maturidade na auréola. A explosiva fruta da juventude é mais contida agora dado o vinho começar a concretizar-se na maturidade. No entanto, o nariz ainda é guiado por impressionantes e focados aromas de amora e groselha preta, realçados pelo clássico perfume a violetas dos vinhos da Taylor´s. Encorpado e bem estruturado, com ricos sabores de amora e cassis. Sabores de especiarias, alcaçuz e a lembrar figos que desenvolvem-se no longo e sumptuoso final. Só agora, depois de 15 anos, está a começar a compor-se.

Description

For many, Taylor's is the most illustrious wine producing house in Port and drinking its wines constitutes the most sublime of experiences.

 

Created more than three centuries ago, in 1692, Taylor's is one of the oldest Port wine trading houses dedicated exclusively to the production of Port wine and, especially, its best styles.

Above all, Taylor's is an independent company in which some family members play leadership roles in all areas of activity. The company's long and uninterrupted family tradition has allowed it to provide continuity and clarity of mission, both essential attributes of any great Port wine house. It also allowed us to improve the skills and knowledge necessary to produce the best Ports, which are constantly refined in light of the experience that is passed from generation to generation.

Taylor's is also respected as a producer of wood-aged Port wines and holds one of the largest reserves of rare cask-aged wines, of which the distinctive aged Tawny Port wines stand out. The house is also known as the creator of LBV (Late Bottled Vintage), a style that the company pioneered and of which it continues to be the main producer.

Successive generations, with their experience, have strived to improve their knowledge and ability to produce increasingly better Port wines.

Based in Porto and the Douro region, the company is involved in all stages of the production of its Port wines, from planting the vineyard and growing the grapes to the elaboration, aging and bottling of wine batches. The family's commitment to the future of Port wine is demonstrated in its dedication to achieving the highest standards in Port wine production, its sustained investment in all areas of the company's operations and, ultimately, its determination to preserve the unique environment of the Douro region through the promotion of sustainable and responsible viticulture.
