Product Notes

Prats & Symington Post Scriptum is an outstanding Portuguese red wine crafted from Douro Valley vineyards. This delectable blend of Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, and Tinta Roriz reveals rich flavours of ripe fruits intermingled with subtle hints of spice and vanilla. The wine impresses with a deep ruby hue, complex bouquet, velvety texture, and well-structured tannins, culminating in a long, refined finish. It is the perfect accompaniment to hearty meat dishes or aged cheeses. Post Scriptum offers an accessible route to savour the authentic character of Douro wines, reflecting the Prats & Symington family's unwavering commitment to quality.

Tasting Notes

Post Scriptum is a partner wine to Chryseia, drawn from the same vineyards. Its profile is similar, with expressive, fresh and concentrated fruit married to exquisite balance and elegance. Lighter oaked, it is ready to enjoy at a younger age.
