Vintage Port Definition

The Vintage Port that you have acquired with this bond was (or will be) harvested in the autumn of that year. Thereafter it will spend approximately 18 months maturing in seasoned oak barrels before it is carefully selected from only the very best barrels and bottled. Once bottled, it will be available for shipment to the UK approximately 2 years after the harvest.

General Vintages are declared approximately three or four times each decade, when there are prefect growing conditions across the Douro Valley and in the Graham’s vineyards. If a ‘General Vintage’ is declared at the time when your Port is bottled, your bond will be exchanged for 1 x wooden case of 6 x 75cl bottles of Graham’s Vintage Port. In years when a ‘General Vintage’ is not declared, the finest wines from the finest properties are almost always declared as ‘Single Quinta’ or ‘Single Estate’ Vintage Ports. If this type of Vintage is declared your bond will be exchanged for 2 x wooden cases (containing 6 x 75cl bottles) of Graham’s Quinta dos Malvedos Single Quinta Vintage Port.

Please note that only a relatively small amount of Vintage Port is produced in any given year, and that the total production is unlikely to increase significantly from year to year. The Vintage Port you have purchased is therefore valuable and may increase in value, providing it is stored under the right conditions.
