Portugal Region Report

Douro, Red Wine

There has been a station on the main line Douro railroad at Quinta do Vesúvio since 1887 and the trains that daily call there are very much part of the property’s day to day life. This railway forms part of Vesúvio’s rich heritage and when the Symington family decided to launch this third dry red wine from the legendary estate, it felt only natural to evoke the propitious coexistence between railway and vineyard. The ‘Comboio do Vesúvio’ (Vesúvio Train) is unoaked to underscore the wine’s youthful, fruit forward profile.

This unoaked wine has pure red fruit aromas and floral notes of rock rose and Mediterranean bush vegetation. …

Vintage Port
Graham's Stone Terraces 2021
*** 19/20 - Richard Mayson ***

VWP had the honour of tasting this on the steps of THE Graham's Stone Terraces on launch day. It is a stunning port of immense concentration yet with finesse and elegance.

Graham's The Stone Terraces Vintage Port is produced from two low-yielding vineyards of just under 3 hectares laid out on magnificent stone terraces at Quinta dos Malvedos. The Symington family only produce this Vintage Port when these vineyards deliver wines of incomparable elegance and complexity. Given that the stone terraces are comprised of just a limited number of vines, the quality does not always align with the pattern of classic Vintage Port declarations - as was their assessment for 2021 and they are not producing any classic Vintage Ports from this year. …

Vintage Port
Includes FREE Gift Box with Accessories

The 2021 Vintage marks the eleventh consecutive Vintage Port release from Quinta do Noval, in line with their long-held belief that the quality of the vintage, not the market, should be the only determining factor in whether a Vintage Port is made.

Quinta do Noval Vintage Port is characterised by its purity of fruit and a fine, delicate quality that is typical of the wines of the property in general, but which finds its most remarkable and enduring expression in the Vintage Ports.

Equilibrium, harmony, finesse and elegance characterise our great Vintage Ports, which are declared only when we are certain that the year has produced a blend, however small, that is worthy of bearing the name of Quinta do Noval Vintage Port. …

Quevedo 2020 Vintage Port
A beautifully concentrated, richly expressive Port from one of the Douro’s most exciting producers.

Crafted during one of the most challenging years in recent memory, this 2020 Vintage Port stands out not only for its depth and structure, but for its sheer character and charm. The 2020 harvest was the smallest of the century in the Douro, and with pandemic-related disruptions affecting both production and manpower, many top houses chose not to declare a vintage at all.

Quevedo did — and with spectacular results.

We first tasted this in April 2022 at the Big Fortified Tasting. …

Late Bottled Vintage Port

The Quinta da Devesa 2020 Late Bottled Vintage (LBV) Port is a powerful, character-driven wine that captures the richness of the 2020 Douro harvest.

The result is a wine that bridges the gap between youthful vibrancy and classic structure.
