O Produtor, tasting note published in May 28th 2020
Light color, amber with orange tones. A magnificently perfumed nose, with class, displaying a wide variety of dried fruits. Excellent palate, ripe, concentrated, rich and silky, with notes of honey. Simply delicious, with a persistent finish.
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.
