Dating from 1692, Taylor Fladgate is one of the oldest of the founding Port houses. It remains today a family firm, still owned by relations of the original partners. Taylor Fladgate was the first house to produce and market a dry white aperitif Port. Chip Dry White Port was first blended in 1934, since when it has acquired a devoted following throughout the world. Chip Dry is made from selected dry white ports produced from grapes grown in the Douro Superior (the eastern area of the Douro Valley). Although several white grape varieties are used, the Malvasia Fina grape predominates. The individual wines are matured separately in oak vats for between four and five years and are then blended together shortly before bottling to give balance and character. It has a delicate nose combining fresh fruit fragrances with the mellow aromas and hints of oak of a traditional white port and is fresh and lively on the palate, with good flavor and a crisp, dry finish.
