Half a Century of Superlative Port
£75
Landmark Hotel, London NW1
14 November 2010
Speakers: Paul Symington & Johnny Symington
Very few producers can claim a heritage like the Symingtons in making the world’s greatest Ports. With a history spanning five centuries, this family-owned and run business receives consistently high scores from the world’s top critics. In this masterclass Paul Symington and his cousin Johnny, will present a line-up of rare vintage Ports, including Dow’s 1966, Graham’s 1963 and Warre’s 1960, of which there are only a few cases left. The tasting will conclude with the exceptionally rare Graham’s 1955. A tasting on this scale is unlikely ever to be repeated due to the scarcity of the wines.
