Product Information

If the person being thus queried does not know the ritual (and so replies in the negative), the querent will remark ""He's an awfully nice fellow, but he never remembers to pass the port"". The wonders of wood: Graham's is one of the last port companies with its own cooperage team, who care for each cask individually. TIME-HONOURED skills, craftsmanship and dedication are handed down from generation to generation at GRAHAM’S in the form of three unique arts – the art of blending, the art of cooperage and the art of ageing – to produce an extraordinary selection of Tawny Ports.

Graham's 30 Years Old is made from wines of the very highest quality which, following careful selection, are matured in seasoned oak casks of 534 litres until their peak of maturity is reached. unless we get written confirmation from you that this is acceptable and that you will take full responsibilty if the parcel goes missing. The wonders of wood: Graham's is one of the last Port companies with its own cooperage team, who care for each cask individually. The quality of Graham’s Port relies on the finest grapes, primarily sourced 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 members of the Symington family. In 1890, Graham’s became one of the first companies in Portugal to make wines from their own vineyards in the premium Douro Valley.

Red port can be made from many types of grapes (castas), but the main ones are Tinta Barroca, Tinta Cão, Tinta Roriz (Tempranillo), Touriga Francesa, and Touriga Nacional.

Graham's is one of the last Port companies with its own cooperage team, who care for each cask individually. Time-honoured skills, craftsmanship and dedication are handed down from generation to generation in the form of three unique arts – the art of blending, the art of cooperage and the art of ageing – to produce our extraordinary selection of Tawny Ports. All of Graham’s Tawny Ports have their own individual characteristics, the complex flavours and aromas that pervade each of these unique wines have been developed through selecting only our top quality wines from Graham’s four spectacular Quinta’s in the Douro Valley to age in seasoned oak casks in our 1890 Lodge in Vila Nova de Gaia.Only decades of tasting and careful nurturing will allow a wine of this delicacy and quality to emerge. This fortification method is still followed here, when wines are exported to other countries like England from Oporto. Not every year is declared a vintage in the Douro, only those when conditions are favourable to particularly flavourful crops of grapes. It is a true masterpiece of the art of winemaking and a testament to Graham's expertise in producing top-quality fortified wines.
