It comes in with 106 grams per liter of residual sugar. This is gorgeous, with the potential for significant further development. Tight and focused, it is also refined, elegant and very sophisticated. It shows enough backbone to age well, although you might be able to approach this young Porto earlier than indicated. That said, it will certainly need some bottle age to gain complexity. Laced at the moment with primary fruit, raspberries mingling with plums, it is lifted, aromatic and delicious, lingering beautifully on the finish. Its purity of fruit makes it very appealing and sometimes stunning. Its finesse is exceptional, too. It could, perhaps, use a bit more concentration, but it is firing on all burners elsewhere. It is one of the 2015s that, I suspect, people will just love to drink even if it never quite improves to the point of sensational. Here's hoping it fleshes out a bit, comes together and merits an uptick in time. This has been released.

The Graham family motto Ne Oublie (forget not or never forget) perfectly encapsulates the company’s commitment to the Douro Region, born of a deep respect for the past. Founded in 1820, Graham’s produced some of the greatest Ports of the 20th century, amongst which the 1927, 1935, 1945, 1970 and 2000 Vintages. In 1970 the company changed ownership from the founding family to the Symingtons, who have themselves been Port producers since 1882, however through their Anglo-Portuguese great-grandmother, they can trace their Port heritage back to 1652. Graham’s owns some of the finest vineyards in the Douro Valley, one of the oldest demarcated wine regions in the world and a Unesco World Heritage Site. The four properties are: Quinta dos Malvedos, Quinta do Tua, Quinta da Vila Velha and Quinta do Vale de Malhadas. Combined, these four mountain estates total 201 hectares of vineyards, located in different areas of the Upper Douro and the Douro Superior, each making distinctive wines that contribute to Graham’s singular character and style.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-04-13T18:54:42-04:00","created_at":"2023-02-12T09:18:47-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_Portugal","LK1002","Other_Wine","Producer_Graham's","Region_Douro","Source_Hedonism0123","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Port Blend Red"],"price":54800,"price_min":54800,"price_max":54800,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42777016041610,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2015 | Graham's | The Stone Terraces","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":54800,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/60_3a91ef3b-e7ea-40a6-acf8-42f9533f6c01.jpg?v=1676211543"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/60_3a91ef3b-e7ea-40a6-acf8-42f9533f6c01.jpg?v=1676211543","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2015 | Graham's | The Stone Terraces at CaskCartel.com","id":24218499580042,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.6,"height":1000,"width":600,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/60_3a91ef3b-e7ea-40a6-acf8-42f9533f6c01.jpg?v=1676211543"},"aspect_ratio":0.6,"height":1000,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/60_3a91ef3b-e7ea-40a6-acf8-42f9533f6c01.jpg?v=1676211543","width":600}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2015 | Graham's | The Stone Terraces\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlattering, with a gorgeous, seductive and showy display of warm plum sauce, blueberry reduction and chocolate-covered acaí berry flavors rushing forth.
