Does Taylor's care if I get a bad bottle?

[Arv_R]

I still don’t understand what OP is referring to. One can actually buy Taylors Ruby Port (the famed Oporto shipper) for $12 or so (at least according to w-s free level) and LBV vintages for $16, so perhaps in a closeout bin it could have been the ‘real’ Taylors I would assume.

But I guess not if there is some industrial junk producer with the same name, rather inconveniently for the high quality shipper.

If they are all bad, then I’m assuming that Taylor’s does expect you to Also get a bad bottle.

Is that a mountain goat or a domestic one? It can take a lot of sulfur to kill a mountain goat.

A domestic goat. I’m sure it would just make a mountain goat feisty.

Craig is a mountain goat. Skinny shit that can climb, and drink, like a pro.

I prefer civilized domesticity. Bad port, however, is meh. Cheap port is worse!

OP: can you clarify what exact bottling/wine you are referring to

Yep, it’s the cheap stuff. I knew it was cheap when I bought it, and wasn’t expecting anything fabulous, but the Sherry from the same brand we opened at Christmas did not have so much sulphur it was undrinkable.

Is this what you are describing? Taylor Sherry Cream | Total Wine & More If so, the answer likely is no. They likely don’t care if you get a bad bottle.

Always return to the retailer. If they dispute it and you have a receipt find a new retailer. It is important to return bad bottles so the numbers of flawed bottles is more accurate. Most retailers will then return to distribution who will comp that bottle.

Based on the sherry comment, I think we can rule out Taylor-Fladgate.

Taylors of California?
This is some of the worst of the worst. And I’m including Thunderbird.

The use of the term “Port” is about as accurate as Gallo’s use of Hearty “Burgundy”

I’d love to know how this “Port” is actually made.
Does it resemble wine at all?

Can I call your port as one of the worst and raise you a Cold Duck

Mmmm… Cold Duck. How else did you celebrate prom?
