Wine Talks with Paul K.

Port wine is history in a bottle. Rupert Symington and family created some of that history.

Port wine is really quite fascinating. It is like history in a bottle. And wine really is about history. This concept all comes together when listening to Rupert Symington of Grahams Port house.

The Symington family has not only seen the best and the worst of being involved with such an important side of the wine industry, they shaped much of how the Portugese wine stage is being played out.

So often we see success in an company and that is all we see. In other words, we are blinded by the perserverance it took to earn the success. Afterall, how would we know the history, the story, the hard times to get to that success. And you know that this tough path exists; nothing comes easy.

Hear the story of near collapse of the Grahams port house and the recovery period that brings us to this podcast. The facility was amazing, the history intrigueing and the wine wildy good.

 

Enjoy.
