1896 - The Douro, bottled in an eternal memory

A wine that lives beyond time

The Taylor Fladgate 1896 Single Harvest Port is not a wine like others. It is a tangible piece of heritage from the 19th century, harvested in a world without electricity, airplanes or radio. All this time, this port rested in old oak barrels in the cellars of Vila Nova de Gaia until it was reverently bottled as part of Taylor's rarest Limited Editions.

Trial Experience

  • Deep mahogany brown with an olive green edge - a color formed by decades
  • An enchanting aroma of old leather, walnuts, plums, truffles and spices
  • An almost ethereal mouthfeel: weightless and intense at the same time
  • Slow, meditative finish with notes of tea, balsamic and antique wood

The story behind the wine

  • Harvested in 1896 - three years before the invention of the radio, under Queen Victoria
  • Over 125 years aged in barrel: a living document of craftsmanship
  • Limited bottled and delivered in wooden presentation case with certificate
  • For collectors, history buffs and those who donate with meaning
