1966 Taylor Fladgate Very Old Single Harvest Port - Douro

1966 - Time captured in its most elegant form

A port as a silent witness to six decades of aging

The Taylor Fladgate Very Old Single Harvest Port 1966 is a rare expression of a time when tradition was all-important. Vinified during an exceptional Douro vintage, this port rested in wooden barrels for more than 50 years before being bottled. All that time, the wine worked quietly on its depth, balance and character.

What makes this port unique is its rare sense of proportion: nothing is exaggerated, nothing is lacking. It is at once powerful and delicate, ripe and fresh - a harmonious reflection of time itself.
