Product Notes

Graham's Quinta dos Malvedos is a quintessential Portuguese wine marked by eminent quality and distinction. Hailed from Douro Valley, this exquisite wine mesmerises with its tantalising fruity aroma infused with a splash of floral notes. The luscious palate swirls with an aggregate of complex flavours, predominantly ripe plum, rich chocolate, and a dash of spice. Slowly matured in seasoned oak casks, it showcases a harmonious balance of sweetness, tannin and acidity. The Malvedos wine promises a powerhouse finish illustrating both robustness and sophistication, making it an immaculate partner for rich desserts and cheeses. It’s a promise of a vinous adventure.

Tasting Notes

Very youthful deep purple colour for its 13 years of age. On the nose powerful and with great depth of fruit, packed with layers of ‘jammy’ dark fruits such as cassis and blackberry. On the palate full bodied and well structured, with complex flavours of dark fuits and nuances of black chocolate. Excellent balance combined to ripe and firm tannins lead to a prolonged and stylish finish.
