FTLOP 18th Anniversary; 11/17/2023-11/19/2023 (Seattle, Washington): Classic older Taylor Vintage Port hue with a dark ruby center transitioning to pink edges. Initially subtle, I coaxed out notes of chocolate and subtle mint on the nose. The palate delivers a rich, intense, and complex flavor profile featuring chocolate, cinnamon, and baking spices, ending in a wonderful, long finish.

Spicy, mature nose. Red fruit and mineral. Flowers and airy. Very, very elegant, but perhaps a bit too tender.
Medium-fullish, mature palate. Spicy, elegant and balanced. Fresh and nutty. Long finish.
Ready to drink, and the elegant style would makes me think this will not benefit from further cellaring.
