2009 Vintage Port Presentation Box, 2009

A bottle of each of Taylors and Fonseca 2009 Vintage Port presented in a deluxe double presentation box

Description and Reviews:
A wonderful gift. A 75cl Bottle of Taylors and a 75cl bottle of Fonseca beautifully presented in a double gift box with accessories.

Fonseca Vintage Port
Description: Very deep purple black with violet highlights. As would be expected of a Fonseca Vintage Port, the first impression on the nose is of a powerful detonation of blackberry, cassis, strawberry and woodland fruit. These exuberant berry aromas are seasoned with notes of coffee, treacle and spice and surrounded by a fragrant balsamic aura of gumcistus and mint. The intense fruit flows through the palate like a thick blackcurrant coulis. The palate is supported by a taut fabric of closely woven tannins and the long finish resounds with a final blast of sumptuous ripe berry flavour.

Taylors Vintage Port
Description: This vintage port shows the density and concentration typical of the year as well as the elegance and finesse which are the hall mark of the estate. Tasting note: Inky Black with a purple rim. Compact and stylish nose, with intense aromas of black current and wild berries wrapped around a dark nucleus of liquorice and treacle. This dense backdrop is overlaid with subtle notes of tea, rose petal, tyme and exotic wood with an attractive grapy freshness emerging as the nose develops. As usual with Taylor's, the nose shows exceptional purity and resolution but is seductive in its complexity. On the palate the tannins are beautifully integrated and deceptively subtle but their firm sinews become apparent on the long finish which is packed with intense black berry fruit flavour.
