2000 Smith Woodhouse – Vintage Port (Douro, Portugal)

A powerful, classically framed Smith Woodhouse from a declared year—still youthful at heart but opening beautifully. Deep purple-garnet with only a hint of bricking at the rim. The nose is vibrant and layered: blackberry and black cherry compote, cassis and violets, with cocoa, liquorice, cedar and a cool eucalyptus lift.

Rich, mouthfilling palate with sweet dark-berry fruit over lively acidity and firm, fine tannins—polished but still present. Notes of dark chocolate, espresso, clove and crushed rock lead to a long, mouthcoating finish of blackberry, cocoa and orange peel. …

1983 Smith Woodhouse – Vintage Port (Douro, Portugal)

A quietly superb ’83 from this under-sung Fladgate house, now in its sweet spot. Deep garnet fading toward tawny at the rim. The nose is lifted and complex: black cherry and damson, fig and date, orange peel and violets, with cacao, coffee bean, cedar and a gentle eucalyptus/menthol lift.

Silky and harmonious on the palate. Sweet dark-berry fruit and kirsch ride lively acidity; tannins are velvety and resolved. Layers of walnut, dark chocolate and baking spice carry into a long, tapering finish of cocoa and candied citrus.

Serve: Lightly cool 14–16 °C. …

1977 Smith Woodhouse – Vintage Port (Douro, Portugal)

A great year and a quietly classic house: the ’77 Smith Woodhouse is now at a glorious, mature plateau. Deep garnet shading to tawny at the rim; the nose is layered and refined—black cherry liqueur, fig and date, sweet orange peel, cacao and coffee bean, with violet, cedar and a touch of eucalyptus. The palate is silken and beautifully knit: sweet blackberry and kirsch glide over lively acidity and velvety, resolved tannins; notes of walnut, dark chocolate and baking spice lead to a long, graceful finish with candied citrus and cocoa.

Producer note: Smith Woodhouse (part of the Fladgate partnership) is known for concentrated, …

Smith Woodhouse, 1975 Vintage Port

Vintage & Background
Founded in 1784, Smith Woodhouse is one of the historic names in Port, known for producing elegant and long-lived wines from prime vineyards in the Cima Corgo. The 1975 vintage was a challenging but ultimately rewarding year: a cool spring and uneven flowering were followed by a warm summer and favourable harvest conditions, yielding wines of balance and finesse. While not declared by all houses, Smith Woodhouse produced a beautifully structured and refined Vintage Port that has matured gracefully over five decades.
