Taylor Fladgate 10 Year Tawny Port
$44.99
93 points from Robert Parke's Wine Advocate! The review: "It is my opinion that Taylor's tawny ports are the best of their type. When tasted against other tawnys, they all exhibit more aromatic personalities, greater fruit and ripeness, and a wonderful sweetness and length. The Ten Year Old Tawny is a personal favorite, as well as the best bargain among these ports."
