Port

Welcome to the exquisite world of port wine, a captivating elixir that has stood the test of time and captivated connoisseurs with its rich flavors, velvety textures, and impeccable craftsmanship.


One of the most iconic names in the world of port wine is Taylor's. With a heritage dating back to 1692, Taylor's has consistently produced exceptional ports known for their remarkable aging potential and finesse. From their iconic Vintage Ports, which showcase the best grapes from exceptional years, to their rich and luscious Tawny Ports aged in oak casks, Taylor's continues to set the standard for excellence in port wine production.


Venturing to the house of Graham's, we encounter a legacy that spans over two centuries. Known for their remarkable Vintage Ports, Graham's consistently delivers wines of depth and complexity. From their opulent and full-bodied Malvedos Vintage to the sublime and silky Six Grapes Reserve, Graham's captures the essence of the Douro Valley, where the grapes are grown.


Another esteemed producer is Dow's, renowned for its rich and powerful ports. With a history dating back to 1798, Dow's has earned a reputation for producing wines of exceptional quality and longevity. Their Vintage Ports, with their intense fruit flavors and firm tannins, are highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts alike.


Among the distinguished producers, Fonseca stands out for its finesse and elegance. Established in 1815, Fonseca specializes in producing Vintage Ports that balance richness and complexity. Their wines exhibit a perfect harmony of fruit, tannins, and acidity, resulting in extraordinary longevity and an unforgettable tasting experience.


These illustrious producers represent just a fraction of the extraordinary port wine brands available to the discerning connoisseur. Each house cherishes age-old traditions, employing meticulous techniques in vineyard management, grape selection, and aging to craft ports of unrivaled quality.

This packs a lot of fun, with a wallop of blackberry, fig, boysenberry and açai berry compote flavors working together, laced with a mouthwatering licorice snap note and driven by a fresh, well-detailed finish. A roasted apple wood accent is integrated as well, lending textural contrast through the vivacious finish. Best from 2030 through 2055. 350 cases made

The 2017 Dow’s Vintage Port showed a slight reduction and required more time to really open in the glass. Typical of Dow’s it has a more backward and introspective bouquet compared to its peers, scents of blackberry, clove, wild mint, cassis and vanilla, gradually gaining more intensity with aeration. The palate is simply glorious. It is built around a compelling tannic frame that seems finer than any Dow’s I have encountered apart from the ethereal 2011. There is so much energy coiled up in this Port, a sense of symmetry that is enthralling and yet you just know that it needs to be cellared for 15-20 years for it to reveal its full potential. For serious Port-lovers. One of the vintages most cerebral offerings. Total production is 5,250 cases.

The 2017 Vintage Port, not quite bottled when originally seen, has now been in bottle for a couple of years. It is a field blend (with typical grapes like Touriga Nacional, Touriga Francesca, Tinto Cão, Tinta Roriz and Tinta Barroca) aged for approximately 20 months in used French oak. It comes in with 98 grams of residual sugar. This is a great Fonseca, distinctive, with a touch of eucalyptus and plums, but also loaded with delicious fruit. Like its Taylor's siblings, there is also a fine backbone. I'd say it is a step behind the Taylor's duo this year, but not by much. It will age well, to say the least.

OMG. This is really the most amazing young Taylor's I have ever tasted. Full-bodied and lightly sweet with super power and intensity. So racy and focused. Yet this has such muscle and intensity. Needs at least eight years to show you everything it has to offer. Drink in 2025.
