O Produtor, tasting note published in May 28th 2020
Grahams 40 Years Old Tawny is witness to a long tradition. This wine is comprised of Grahams Master Blender wines placed in the cellar by his great grandfather, grandfather, father and uncles. The Master Blender also places wines for future generations. Grahams 40 Years Tawny Port is for those who appreciate the extraordinary, complex and subtle taste of time. Golden amber in colour, with a pale green tone on the rim, denoting great age. Very complex with a powerful fragrance that expresses your age. On the palate, a variety of flavors, from delicate fruit and raisins to toffee and chocolate, with an excellent taste. It should be served slightly chilled.
The Grahams 40 Years is produced from the highest quality wines which, after careful selection, are aged in 534 litre oak casks until their peak in maturity.
It is essential to find the right balance between the delicacy and elegance that result from prolonged cask ageing, while preserving the quality of the fruit, which lends this aged Tawny its structure and longevity.

Symington Family Estates
There is a natural affinity between wine and family. Long-term vision and commitment through many generations are essential for the success of a family wine company. A newly planted vineyard takes time to produce great wines and often requires a lifetime’s work to yield best results. The Symington family, with Scottish, English and Portuguese ancestry has been present in the Douro for five generations — since 1882 — and through the current generation’s great grandmother, the family’s links to the wines of the Douro span 14 generations, to the mid-17th century and to the very beginnings of the history of Port.
