Rose Murray Brown MW, The Scotsman 'I've always enjoyed Graham Beck's sparklers, made in the champagne method under the supervision of the legendary Pieter Bubbles Ferreira. This 50-50 blend of chardonnay & pinot noir from the Robertson region is about as good as it gets for a non-champagne fizz, being crisp & clean, but toasty & brioche-like too. A cracking aperitif.'

Graham's Crusted is made from a selection of very fine young Ports from two or three harvests, drawn principally from Quinta dos Malvedos, Quinta das Lages, Vila Velha & Vale de Malhadas. The wines from these different vineyards & harvests are blended together & kept in oak casks prior to being bottled without any filtration. Once bottled, the wine is matured for a further three years in the Graham's cellars before release for sale. Therefore, by the time Graham's Crusted reaches the consumer, it will have gained the superb elegance & style that only time in bottle can give to a great Port.
