Tasting Notes
The nose reveals aromas of blackberry, cassis, dark chocolate, and dried fig. On the palate, the wine is rich and concentrated, offering layers of black fruit supported by firm tannins and balanced sweetness. Notes of spice, licorice, and subtle floral tones emerge through a long, structured finish that continues to evolve with time.
Winemaking & Vineyard Details
Produced from traditional Portuguese varieties including Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, and Tinta Roriz, the wine is sourced from Taylor Fladgate’s estates in the Douro Valley. Fermentation is halted with grape spirit to retain natural sweetness, followed by aging in large oak vats before bottling. The 2000 growing season delivered optimal ripeness and concentration.

Taylor Fladgate Vintage Ports are among the most consistently collected fortified wines. The 2000 vintage, declared across the region, offers exceptional aging potential and strong global demand, making it a cornerstone for collectors focused on long-term cellaring.
