Event Description

Following our deep dive into Chruchill's Vintage Ports, we now invite you to an evening experiencing their Douro Valley Wines. You'll taste the full range available in the UK, plus two special bottles shipped from Porto which are not to be missed!

Back in September we spent a whole afternoon as the guests of Churchill's in Porto. We learned a little of their (relatively recent) history, and a great deal about how the roots of the Grahams family on Porto go all the way back to the birth of Port itself... Churchill's is just the latest chapter!

Having tasted our way through the extensive back catalogue of wines and vintages, we selected the following wines to showcase what we learned about the Douro:

  • Douro Estate White 2019 (a blend of hand harvested Rabigato and Viosnho, 1/5 aged in new oak for texture and body) RRP £15
  • Douro Estate Red 2017 (a blend of hand harvested Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca and Tinta Roriz, 1/3 aged in French oak casks) RRP £15
  • Douro Touriga Nacional 2014 (hand harvested and aged in new and used French oak for 12 months) RRP £17
  • Gricha Douro Red 2018 (a classic Douro field blend produced from the old vineyards at the finest estate owned by Churchill's- Quinta da Gricha) RRP £30
  • Quinta da Gricha Talhao 8 2017 (exclusive single plot within Quinta da Gricha with the estate's oldest Touriga Nacional Vines from the simply stunning '17 vintage) n/a in UK €45 at winery
  • Quinta da Gricha 2007 (the ultimate expression of the Gricha Estate, field blend of carefully selected fruit from the top vineyards, aged for 12-15 months in 500L new French barrels; tasting amazing with 15 years behind it!!) RRP n/a in UK €60 at winery

A stunning line up of beautiful and authentic wines- expressing the varieties and the terroir of the Douro Valley. We are excited to share them with you!
