Overall, 2015 was a blinder of a vintage, especially for the classics. There are plenty of options for both drinking now or for cellaring later, so take your pick. Europe had an intensely hot summer and many regions were affected by drought, but luck seemed to be mostly on the growers’ side as the majority pulled through, delivering stunning wines. Any of these wines would make a fabulous 10 year old wine gift for an Anniversary or birthday.
Our Wine Expert currently recommends the following wines for this year:
Quinta Das Carvalhas 2015 Vintage Port Quinta da Devesa 2015 Late Bottled Vintage Barolo 2015 Gigi Rosso Piedmont Blandys 10 Year Old Sercial Madeira This Year in History: Fun Fact: The first-generation Apple Watch was released.

Italian: In Piemonte an exceptional vintage was produced,with great promise thanks to healthy grapes and exceptionally regular bunches. In Tuscany, a cold and rainy winter preceded an irregular spring followed by exceptionally hot, dry summer weather, creating small bunches of Sangiovese, so yields were down across the region however concentration levels concentration levels are very good.
Portugal: Abundant rainfall marked the start of the viticultural year, replenishing depleted soil water reserves. This was to prove crucial due to the very dry winter, spring and summer that followed which was the hottest and driest of the last 36 years. It was the hottest June of the last half-century resulting in exceptionally low yields at harvest time. The conditions leading up to the harvest were excellent and a little late rain followed by sunshine just before picking offset some of the heat stress to produce some of the best grapes in memory (particularly Touriga Franca). The vintage was exceptional but held back from declaration.

Vintage Port, Douro
THE STONE TERRACES
Presented in Grahams Gift Box
***93 Points- James Suckling***
The 2015 Graham's Vintage Port Wine comes from a limited release of 400 cases from The Symington family's Stone Terraces vineyards, which occupy just 2.9 hectares of its iconic Quinta dos Malvedos, of which the total area under vine is 90 hectares. Acquired in 1890, this property is acknowledged to be in one of the Upper Douro Valley’s most favourable sites. It has been the source of some of the greatest Vintage Ports ever made. The Stone Terraces vineyard at Quinta dos Malvedos produced an extraordinary wine in 2015. The grapes were picked by hand over the weekend of the 12th/13th of September, a couple of days before substantial rain fell across the Douro Valley, and were subsequently fermented in lagares at the estate’s own small winery. …
