Taylors Wines Release The Legacy 2014 to Celebrate 50th Year

Taylors Wines has released Taylors The Legacy 2014, its finest wine ever made in honour of its 50th year since founding the winery in 1969.

Taylors The Legacy 2014

Taylors The Legacy 2014 celebrates the founding purpose of the South Australian wine producer – to craft new world wines that stand tall against the iconic wines of the old world, particularly those from Bordeaux that originally sparked the family’s desire to realise their passion of crafting fine wines.

Taking inspiration from these wines, The Legacy is predominantly cabernet sauvignon, with small parcels of merlot and cabernet franc.

Taylors The Legacy 2014

Every detail has been considered in the packaging behind Taylors The Legacy 2014. The wine is housed within a bespoke case, with The Legacy name emblazoned in silver. Included within the case is a certificate of authenticity, as well as a book containing a detailed history of Taylors Wines, and a family tree of the Taylors past and present.

Taylors unveils a world-first, protective bottle overcap and security chip. The security chip, one of the first of its kind, enables purchasers of The Legacy to access information about the wine through their smart phone using near-field communication. Through a dedicated app,
purchasers can also access important security details, confirming that the wine is authentic and unopened.

Only 1,080 individual bottles have been created of Taylors The Legacy 2014. This extremely rare wine will be available in select markets from 1 May in select fine wine retailers and Taylors Cellar Door for $1,000 RRP.
