It is notable for its wide range of traditional ports, from vintage expressions to tawny ports of various ages, and also for its creation of the Late Bottled Vintage, or LBV, style. The genesis of the company began 1692 when English wine merchant Job Bearsley arrived in Portugal, although it would be many years and owners before it came to be known as Taylor's. Bearsley initially traded in red Portuguese wine from the northwest of the country, and in 1744, under his grandson Bartholomew, the company became the first British wine merchant to buy a property in the Douro. Taylor's changed hands often during the 19th and 20th Centuries, coming under control of both Joseph Taylor and John Fladgate, who gave the company its names. It survived to rebuild after phylloxera ravaged vineyards across Europe at the end of the 19th Century. It came to the Yeatman family at the beginning of the 20th Century, and they have been the proprietors since. In the 1960s, Alistair Robertson took the reins and began to focus on finding new markets in Asia and North America, rather than just relying on Britain. He also created the first Late Bottled Vintage port, which has since become a mainstay of the industry. It was first released with the 1970 vintage and was an instant success.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-09-13T12:53:08-04:00","created_at":"2023-09-11T15:19:01-04:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_Portugal","NK0709","Other_Wine","Producer_Taylor's","Region_Douro","Source_VendorEmail0823","Type_Dessert Wine","Varietal_Port Blend Red"],"price":14000,"price_min":14000,"price_max":14000,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":43645054451850,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2000 | Taylor's | Fladgate Late Bottled Vintage Port","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":14000,"weight":5443,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/20_e0927149-9ba8-46cf-b351-175c0c766ced.jpg?v=1694460004"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/20_e0927149-9ba8-46cf-b351-175c0c766ced.jpg?v=1694460004","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2000 | Taylor's | Fladgate Late Bottled Vintage Port at CaskCartel.com","id":25099704336522,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.242,"height":600,"width":145,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/20_e0927149-9ba8-46cf-b351-175c0c766ced.jpg?v=1694460004"},"aspect_ratio":0.242,"height":600,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/20_e0927149-9ba8-46cf-b351-175c0c766ced.jpg?v=1694460004","width":145}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eDessert Wine: 2000 | Taylor's | Fladgate Late Bottled Vintage Port\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComplex floral and spice aromas backed by firm, black cherry and berry fruit.
