George Blackett, born in the city of Leeds, established himself in Oporto in the 19thcentury as a merchant of Port wines. His positioning within the industry allowed him to make a remarkable progress, featuring in the Top 5 of the biggest traders of the century, according to the registration books of Oporto Customs.

The revival of the name by Alchemy Wines, Port Wines & Vineyards Lda in 2013 aims to mark the power of time and of a wine that survives and grows over consecutive generations. A name that was forgotten but that has been found in the history of Port wine, a story that seemed to be lost in history, but with a great example of authenticity.
