Taylor Fladgate's Vintage Ports are renowned for their massive structure and aromatic power, tempered by a characteristic understatement and restraint. Historically Taylor Fladgate has only declared about three Vintage years per decade. For a declaration to be made, the Vintage Port blend must be of outstanding quality: austere in its youth, with tremendous depth of flavour and massive structure, capable of evolving over years, or decades into that quintessence of great Port, a mature Taylor Fladgate Vintage. If they are judged to be of exceptional quality, the Port wines of the three estates are blended together, Vargellas bringing structure, elegance and complexity to the wine and Terra Feita and Junco body, depth and powerful, concentrated fruit.Īt this stage it must be decided whether a Vintage Port is to be ‘ declared’. In their second Spring, they are tasted again. Please note that there’s enough material on the tour for 2 hours if you wish, therefore if you think you would appreciate staying longer for the tour and tasting, then we would suggest that you arrive no later than 3.30 / 4pm.After each harvest, the tasting panel selects the finest Port wines from the three properties and these are then left to age for two winters in oak vats. The audio-guided tour lasts, on average, one hour, with a further 30 minutes required for the Port wine tasting at the end, in the tasting room. Tasting Room and Shop: 11am - 7pm (mon-sun) Trying one of our food and wine pairing options during your tasting.Restaurant "Barão de Fladgate” - open daily for lunch from 12h30 until 15h00 or from 19h until 22h for dinner.A visit to our wine shop where you can find the whole range of Taylor Fladgate Ports including charming gift boxes or rare Vintages.
