FAQ's For Taylors Single Harvest 1976 Vintage Port

What Is a Single Harvest Port?

A Single Harvest Port (also known as Colheita) is produced from grapes of one single year but aged in oak cask for an extended period - in this case, several decades.

Is it ready to drink?

Yes. Extended cask ageing means it is fully mature and ready to enjoy now.

Does it need decanting?

No. Long wood ageing prevents sediment formation, so it can be poured and served directly.

Is this suitable as a gift?

This exceptional Single Harvest Port is made from grapes picked in 1976, maturing gracefully over decades.

Perfect gift for:

  • Born in 1976, celebrating a 50th birthday
