Graham's 2018 Late Bottled Vintage Port was produced with grapes from four vineyards in the Douro Valley. The year was dry and hot, leading to a low-yield early harvest that created concentrated and intense wines. This Late Bottled Vintage offers notes of blackberries, honeysuckle, tropical fruit, kirsch and liquorice throughout the palate, which will pair well with sharp cheeses or dark chocolate desserts.
75cl at 20% alc/vol.
TASTING NOTES
This port offers enticing aromas of red and black fruits with some lovely mint and eucalyptus notes. It is generous on the palate, with Graham’s typical opulence, revealing delicious blackberry fruit underscored by ripe, polished tannins, which give the wine great freshness and vitality. The finish reveals Graham’s signature complexity and elegance in equal measure.
Serving Suggestions
Traditionally, Port is served at room temperature, or slightly chilled, towards the end of a meal with cheese.
