Critic Ratings
Sweet in the best sense: A beehive of lively flavor, a direct line from honey back to flowers.
This mature Tawny combines honeyed sweetness with vivid floral energy and remarkable freshness. Its flavors continue to expand for minutes after each taste, showing both stamina and complexity rather than simple richness. The result is grand, evocative, and exceptionally well suited to slow sipping and conversation.
This is the newest Port in the great line of aged tawnies from Taylor Fladgate.
The Golden Age bottling shows astonishing freshness for a wine of this maturity, with fruit and oak fully integrated. Spice, nuts, dried fig, and seasoned wood create a layered aromatic profile without overwhelming the wine’s balance. It is complete and ready to drink now, combining depth with the poise expected from Taylor Fladgate’s aged Tawnies.
