P + S, Douro DOC (Portugal) 2011

Dec 4, 2013

By Robert Whitley

P + S is shorthand for Prats and Symington, two of the most recognized names in fine wine. Prats is Bruno, widely acclaimed for the wines he produced at the famous Bordeaux chateau Cos d’Estournel. The Symington family owns a number of the finest Port houses, including Graham’s, Dow’s and Smith Woodhouse. Their partnership makes the Post scriptum wines at Quinta de Roriz, another top Port house, and the results are dynamic. Post scriptum exhibits black fruit flavors and a firm structure. Its best years are ahead of it, so collectors take note. And at $25 it’s a remarkable value in world class red wine.
