"...it is a rather powerful 10 year old Tawny with plenty of pop...There is very fine concentration of flavor for a 10 year old Tawny....Overall, the weight, complexity, mouth feel and grip on the finish still make this my favorite of the group of 10s submitted by Taylor Fladgate this issue...This comes with a bar top cork, i.e., not intended to be aged (although it most certainly can hold a couple of decades barring cork failures)." 90 Points, Wine Advocate
An exceptionally fine old tawny blend, aged for an average of 10 years in oak casks. Elegant and smooth, combining delicate wood notes and rich mellow fruit, it is bottled for immediate drinking. Excellent with soft cheeses such as brie; and a superb dessert wine, particularly with dishes made with coffee or almonds, Taylor 10 Year Old Tawny is delicious served lightly chilled at the end of the meal.
This is a great, fresh, young style of wine, with figs and bitter marmalade flavors. There s a touch of orange peel, a hint of vanilla and very ripe, delicious fruit.
Juicy and focused, offering dried cherry, fig and bergamot notes inlaid with red licorice and fruitcake flavors that marry the flattering and racy sides. Drink now.
