Taylor--Vintage 1963 Believed English-bottled. No labels. Embossed wax capsules, some chipped. Very good levels Tasting note: Over two dozen notes since 1968, mostly since 1980. Originally a block-buster, no matter whether English- or Oporto-bottled. Though deep, suddenly showing maturity from the mid-1980s. The most recent, Oporto-bottled, was palish, retaining very little red. Peppery spirit, toffee and tobacco on the nose heralds a powerful, lively wine with not only the Taylor backbone but quite a kick. Still a fairly sweet mouthful. M.B.
