Taylor Fladgate First Estate Reserve Porto (NV)

[hotwine]

A "blended young Port", per the back label, but supposedly made "in the traditional style". Could have fooled me.... nothing traditional about it... lots of fruit and alcohol (20%), but no Port character beyond the flavorings of the grapes used. Tastes like a field blend that was aged on the boat. Paid about $18, which was 'way over-priced. Don't bother.
