Set Taylor's Fine Port White + Ruby + Tawny
Taylor's Fine White Port is a Portuguese white port that is a blend of white wines made from white grapes grown on the upper slopes of the Duro valley. The grapes used include varieties such as Arinto, Boal (Semillon), Codega, Esgana Cão, Folgasão, Gouveio, Viosinho, and Rabigato.
The individual wines age for 3 years in oak barrels, from which they gain smoothness and rich flavor. We recommend serving chilled in a large port glass alongside olives or roasted almonds.

Taylor’s Fine Ruby Port is a classic port wine from Portugal, made from fuller port wines aged for about two years in large oak casks. During aging, it gains softness and elegance while retaining fruitiness, intensity, and a youthful ruby color.
The aroma is distinctly fruity, with notes of blackcurrants and cherries. The taste is full, firm, and concentrated, with a rich expression of dark fruit, which is typical for the Ruby Port style.
Taylor’s Fine Ruby Port is ready to drink without decanting. It pairs excellently after a meal, especially with aged blue cheeses, desserts with berries, or dark chocolate.
Taylor’s Fine Tawny Port is a classic port wine from Portugal, crafted from wines selected for their smoothness, finesse, and rounded character. It ages in oak barrels in the Taylor’s cellars in Vila Nova de Gaia, and then the individual wines are blended for a balanced final expression.
In the Tawny style, it appears lighter and more delicate than fuller ruby ports. It has a light brick color with an amber rim and an aroma of ripe berry fruits, butterscotch, figs, plums, nuts, and spices. The taste is smooth, rounded, and sweet, with a pronounced note of strawberry jam.
Taylor’s Fine Tawny Port is ready to drink without decanting. It pairs excellently slightly chilled as an aperitif, but also after meals with desserts featuring almonds, berries, dark chocolate, nuts, or strong blue cheese.
