Taylor Fladgate History
Taylor Fladgate Current & Past Cellar Masters

This 1967 is the fourth consecutive Limited Edition release of Taylor's as a 50th year anniversary of the wine. Taylor's hold one of the most extensive reserves of very old cask-aged port of any producer. These reserves include a unique collection of rare Single Harvest Ports. These ports are produced from a single year and age to full maturity in seasoned oak casks, displaying the vintage on the label. Single Harvest Ports are ready for immediate drinking and do not need to be decanted.

Weather: After a cool summer (without any real heat in July or August), the grapes were still green and backward when picking began around 20th September. Both yields and sugar levels were low. Many picked too early (fearing a repeat of the rains which had marred the latter part of the previous three vintages) however warm weather continued into October and, unusually, the best grapes with higher sugar readings were picked last.

Tasting Note: A broad amber colour. On the nose: a complex variety of pistachio and toasted sesame. On the palate: hints of menthol and liquorice root notes with an abundance of nuttiness. A remarkably long finish mixed with more spice and walnut flavours.

Presented in a magnificent branded wooden box, Taylor's Single Harvest Port 1967 is the perfect 50th birthday present.

Taylor's are one of the oldest Port producers, founded over three centuries ago in 1692. A family-owned independent producer, they became famous for their Late Bottled Vintage Port, produced on family properties in the famous estate of Quinta de Vargellas and the ancient vineyards of Terra Feita and Junco. These three iconic properties, each occupying a distinct geographic location and with their own unique character, are the cornerstone of the company’s success and the main source of its unique and inimitable house style. Taylor’s Vintage Ports are noted for their elegance and poise as well as for their restrained power and longevity.

Expert Reviews

98/100

James Molesworth

“This draws you in, with aromas of warm halva and toasted pistachio giving way to a wide range of buckwheat, toasted sesame, walnut husk, menthol and licorice root notes that refuse to break down in the mouth. Exhibits remarkable length, with ample viscosity matched by steely tension, putting this in rarefied air.”

Wine Enthusiast

“This 1967 is part of Taylor Fladgate’s regular releases of aged Colheita. It is showing a perfect moment in which the fruit finally passes into old gold maturity. The wine still has hints of sultanas, but now it’s the fine wood and spice character that is equally important.”
