Round and chocolately with ripe middle palate and a prickle of alcohol heat on the finish. Perfectly decent LBV at this point, just always feels like they would be better after 15-20 years like their more expensive cousins.

Un LBV rond, velouté en attaque, souple et frais, avec le petit côté sucré propre à ce type de vin fortifié. C’est court, sympa, sans vice ni vertu. 85 pts

Typical Taylor LBV - rich with just the right amount of sweetness.

Good honest LBV port. Full body with excellent, mainly black cherry, fruit. It has complexity and length. Good value.
