1935 Taylor

Post by winesecretary »

You wait decades for a 1935 Taylor to come along and then two come along at once…

1 hour decant.

Still red in the centre, pale rim.

Indeterminate nose but much swirling delivers rose hip syrup and cranberry.

Palate richly fruited with some rather lovely confit fig notes. Some warmth but avoids the Taylor heat.

To my mind the superior of the two bottles being consumed this evening. That is possibly not the majority opinion.
