Wine Advocate, 94 Points 

"This house must certainly be the Latour of Portugal. Their ports are remarkably backward yet still impressive when young. Of all the vintage ports, those of Taylor need the longest time to mature and even when fully mature seem to have an inner strength and firmness that keep them going for decades. Their tawnys are also among the very best, though somewhat expensive. The 1983 is wonderfully aromatic and so perfumed (a characteristic of this charming vintage), yet powerful, long and deep on the palate." 

Winemaker Notes: 

"Deep cherry, burgundy color, fading at the rim. Rich, jammy harmonious fruit. Stylish, aromatic, concentrated fruit flavors. Raisin, chocolate; plum jam. Medium-full bodied. Rounded tannins. Complex, fleshy wine." 

Alcohol: 20.5%
