Taylor's Port Wine 葡萄牙最古老波特酒廠之一

Robert Parker : Taylor's 是最昂貴的年份波特

Who are Taylor?

For many, Taylor's is the archetypal Port house and its wines the quintessential Ports. Established over three centuries ago in 1692, Taylor's is one of the oldest of the founding Port houses. It is dedicated entirely to the production of Port wine and in particular to its finest styles.

Above all, Taylor's is regarded as the benchmark for Vintage Port. Noted for their elegance and poise as well as for their restrained power and longevity, Taylor's Vintage Ports are blended from the finest wines of the firm's own quintas or estates, Vargellas, Terra Feita and Junco. These three iconic properties, each occupying a distinct geographic location and with their own unique character, are the cornerstone of the company's success and the main source of its unique and inimitable house style.

Taylor's is also respected as a producer of wood aged ports and holds one of the largest reserves of rare cask aged wines from which its distinguished aged tawny Ports are drawn. The house is also known as the originator of Late Bottled Vintage, a style which the firm pioneered and of which it remains the leading producer.

Above all, Taylor's is an independent company in which some family members play a leading role in all areas of the firm's activity. The firm's long and unbroken family tradition has provided continuity and clarity of purpose, essential attributes of any great wine house. It has also allowed the skills and knowledge required to produce the finest ports to be constantly refined and added to in the light of experience as they are passed down from one generation to the next.

Based in Oporto and the Douro Valley the company is closely involved in all stages of the production of its Ports, from the planting of the vineyard and the cultivation of the grapes to the making, ageing, blending and bottling of the wines. The family's commitment to the future of Port is demonstrated in its single minded dedication to the highest standards in Port production, its continued investment in all aspects of the firm's operations and its determination to preserve the unique environment of the Douro Valley through the promotion of sustainable and responsible viticulture.

Sustainable Practices

We are committed to minimising the impact of our business on the environment and to adopting environmentally sustainable methods and techniques whenever possible. In addition to our award-winning Sustainable Vineyard Model, we have made advances in such areas as renewable energy, waste management and effluent treatment and will continuously monitor and improve our performance in these and other areas.

Biodiversity Award

Several plots both at Quinta de Vargellas and Quinta de Terra Feita have been converted to a new environmentally sustainable planting system developed by the firm's respected head of viticulture Antonio Magalhaes and technical director David Guimaraens. At Vargellas, methods have been developed for the more efficient management of the old historic walled terraces allowing them to be preserved for the future.Thanks to these efforts, The Fladgate Partnership was awarded the BES Biodiversity Award in 2009.

Philosophy

Since its foundation in 1692, Taylor has been dedicated to making the finest Port.

The house remains entirely focused on Port production and specialised in its premium styles. Unlike most other producers, it does not market any other wine.

Taylor is committed to remaining independently owned. This guarantees the continuity of purpose required to make wines of quality and character. It also preserves a priceless inheritance of experience and skill passed down through the generations over more than three centuries.

Taylor's independence also helps to protect its future as a producer of the finest Ports, allowing it to make decisions and investments which are in the best long term interests of the firm and of future generations.

The family character of the company also helps to nurture the personal relationships which lie at the heart of the fine wine business, such as the firm’s long established partnerships with its grape suppliers and with its customers around the world. Most importantly it helps to strengthen the firm’s bond with those who appreciate and enjoy fine wines and whose loyalty is the firms' most important asset.

As an independent company whose success is inseparable from that of the Douro Valley, Taylor remains committed to protecting this beautiful region by practising viticulture which is economically and environmentally sustainable.

The future of the Douro Valley and its unique environment is also the future of Port, one of the world's great classic wines and an irreplaceable part of human heritage.
