Wine Blog #4 - Taylor Port Black

 

 



The Taylor Port Black wine was $11.99. The wine vintage year is 2022. This wine originated in Portugal but now is made in the US. This wine has a blend of grapes from a region named Duoro in Portugal. 

I found a mix of different reviews however majority of the reviews I found were positive. Some compared it to grape juice with a kick. Many say it reminded them of a dessert. I found a few reviews saying they thought it was "probably one of the worst, grape-tasting, acidic flavored beverages I've ever had. Simply awful." 

I was not the biggest fan of this wine however, I did not hate it. This wine had a lot of legs. The smell was very oaky with a strong smell of grapes and cherries. As soon as I drank it I got a very hot sense in my mouth because it was very strong. It reminded me of a big of cough syrup as it was sweet and very syrupy. The wine was very smooth and super-rich. I did not have food with this wine. However, I would purchase it again to try it with something else.
