Graham’s Quinta dos Malvedos 2018 is a single-quinta Vintage Port showcasing the unique terroir of one of Graham’s most iconic vineyards in the Douro Valley. Nestled on steep terraces of schist soil, Quinta dos Malvedos combines the hot, dry microclimate of the Upper Douro with carefully managed vines to produce a wine of exceptional richness, structure, and ageing potential. Meet the producer Founded in 1820 in Portugal’s Douro Valley, Graham’s is a family-owned Port house renowned for its craftsmanship and expertise. The Symington family continues to manage all aspects of grape growing and winemaking, blending tradition with precise vineyard management to create world-class Ports. Production Grapes for the 2018 vintage were harvested by hand at optimal ripeness from Quinta dos Malvedos. Each varietal was fermented separately in small vats and matured in seasoned oak casks before being carefully blended and bottled. The result is a Vintage Port that balances concentration, freshness, and elegance. Tasting notes Graham’s Quinta dos Malvedos 2018 exhibits a deep garnet colour with intense aromas of ripe black fruits, berries, and subtle floral notes. The palate is full-bodied and rich, showing layers of dark cherries, plums, and cocoa, supported by fine tannins and lively acidity. It has a long, harmonious finish, reflecting the quality and finesse of this exceptional single-quinta Port. Food match Pairs beautifully with rich desserts such as dark chocolate torte, berry compote, or strong, aged cheeses. Can also be savoured on its own as a contemplative dessert wine.
