The Stone Terraces Vintage Port Porto

Description

Graham's The Stone Terraces 2021 Vintage Port: an extraordinary edition, only the fifth ever produced, as this vintage is declared only when the vineyards deliver wines of incomparable elegance and complexity. A Port that delights the senses now and will age magnificently for decades. The Stone Terraces 2021 Vintage Port is a special bottling of just 4,800 75cl bottles and 280 "tappit hens" (225cl), representing only 2% of the total production at Quinta dos Malvedos in 2021. At Quinta dos Malvedos, Graham's principal property, just under three hectares of hand-built stone terraces dating from the late 18th century are found. Meticulously rebuilt after being abandoned following phylloxera, these stone terraces were designed to produce Ports of exceptional concentration and power, using viticultural techniques that have barely changed over hundreds of years. The 2021 growing and harvest season was one of the coolest in recent years, with moderate conditions encouraging slower, more gradual ripening and balanced maturation. The notably cool nights during harvest contributed to wines with excellent acidity and a very good colour. Bottled in May 2023.
