2000 | Burmester | Vintage Port

A straightforward bouquet of tar, earth, licorice, and black fruits allied with a certain funkiness of unknown origin emerges from this medium to full-bodied, chunky vintage port. Although it lacks finesse, it saturates the palate, and has excellent depth as well as character.

Producer Information

Burmester is a historic Port house, whose origins date back to 1730 in London when Henry Burmester (from north Germany) and John Nash founded Burmester and Nash as a cereal trading company. The business moved to Vila Nova de Gaia and began shipping wine to British and European markets in 1750.At the end of the 18th Century, it was re-formed by Henry Burmester Jr. and his sons Fredrick and Edward as H. Burmester & Sons. Napoleon's invasion of Portugal forced Frederick – a prominent banker in London – to abandon his interests in the country. Since he had no heirs, a German branch of the family was invited to take charge from the 1830s.
