Smith Woodhouse is a specialist producer of premium quality Ports. The uniformity of this quality is underpinned by Smith Woodhouse?s own Madalena vineyard from where the wines are largely sourced. This small Quinta (vineyard property) has the highest ?A? quality rating and is located in the Rio Torto district, acknowledged as one of the finest Port growing areas. Over the coming years, the recently acquired Quinta do Vale Coelho, further upriver in the Douro Superior, producing full and elegant wines, will gradually form an important component of Smith Woodhouse?s Ports.
This fresh, fruity wine comes from one of the Symington Group's second labels, one which often impresses by its quality. This Port is herbal, with chocolate flavors, black fruits and a good, clean, dry aftertaste.?ROGER VOSS
