Description
Taylor 1963
Good levels, 2 bottle have stained and soiled paper Taylor's labels, partially missing wax capsules, excellent color and clarity; 5 bottles have typed labels, 1 with a generic capsule cut to reveal fully branded cork, 2 bottles have shipper and vintage embossed wax capsules (UK bottled by T Welsey), 2 with chipped and partially missing wax capsules revealing fully branded corks, excellent color and clarity
The 1963 is slightly deeper in colour than the 1966. Great vibrant damsons. Massively strong - the 1963 character is always as marked as the house style, as a general rule, in this vintage. The amazing backbone is here supported by extraordinary fruit. When you go back to it, it has a burnt coffee nose. Another bottle had toffee and alcohol on the nose and a really toffee taste. The finish is spirity but very long. My last bottle, in 2008, was very gentle and soft - we all go that way with age! Serena Sutcliffe, MW
