About this Event:

Since 1820, the name Graham’s has been synonymous with the greatest ports to be produced in the beautiful and remote Douro Valley of Northern Portugal. Centred
on the famous Quinta dos Malvedos, Graham’s owns some of the finest vineyards in the Douro and its wines consistently win top accolades and medals in all the major international tasting competitions. Owned by the Symington family, whose connection with the port trade goes back to the 17th century, Graham’s is
particularly noted for its outstanding vintage ports.

The tasting of seven wines today will include, amongst others, the flagship Graham’s Late Bottled Vintage 2005, the delicate and sensual chilled Twenty Year Old Tawny and the trophy-winning Crusted Port. These will be followed by Quinta dos Malvedos 1999 Vintage Port and the outstanding Graham’s 1980 Vintage Port.

Chairman of the port judging for the International Wine and Spirit Competition, Tim Stanley-Clarke has also served as a judge at port and wine festivals around the world.
