COCKBURN's was founded in 1815 by Robert Cockcurn, a Scottish wine merchant from a distinguished family in Edinburgh. In the 19th Century, three other families joined the company - the Smithes, the Teages and the Cobbs - and together with the Cockburns, they developed this house into one of the greatest names in Port. Following the Symington family's acquisition of Cockburn's in 2010, and the company's return to family ownership and the company focus was shifted back to one thing: the quality of the wine.
