Description
”GRAHAMS Founded in 1820 by William and John Graham in Portugals Douro Valley, for nearly two centuries Grahams has cultivated its reputation as one of the greatest names in Port. The quality of Grahams Port relies on the finest grapes from five iconic quintas in the Douro Valley Quinta dos Malvedos, Quinta do Tua, Quinta das Lages, and two others, Quinta da Vila Velha and Quinta do Vale de Malhadas, which are privately owned by a member of the Symington family. Located in the heart of the Upper Douro Valley, all of these quintas enjoy the hot and dry microclimate and unique schist soil only found in this region. Together these two factors provide perfect conditions for both the growth and optimum ripening of the grapes.GRAHAMS 40 YEAR OLD TAWNY PORT Time-honoured skills, craftsmanship and dedication are handed down from generation to generation at Grahams in the form of three unique artsthe art of blending, the art of cooperage and the art of ageingto produce an extraordinary selection of Tawny Ports.
